that考查名词性从句。that引导同位语从句,在从句中不作句子成分,对同位语fact的内容进行解释和说明,符合语境。

stopping考查词性转换。介词后应用动名词形式,故将stop变为stopping B卩可。
severely 考査词性转换。修饰动词的词为副词,故用se?verely 修饰谓 语动词 looked ,符合语境。
to drive 考查固定搭配。too— to…意为"太.... 而不能……",符合语境,故用不定式to。
why考查定语从句。此处why引导定语从句,在从句中作状语,修饰先行词the reason,符合语境。
it考查代词。此处it代指上文的the red light。
at 考查介词。at one's first attempt意为"在某人第一次尝试时",符合语境,故用介词"。
successfully考査词性转换。修饰动词的词为副词,故用副词successfully修饰动词done。
