题目内容

He was afraid that the branch might bend over and break, and he would be sent _____ to the ground.

　　A. crashing B. throwing C. rushing D. dropping

解析:

crash(to the ground)猛跌（到地上）。Crash n.

　　常指飞机等的“失事”，如：He was killed in an aircraft crash.(他在飞机失事中丧生。)本句中用falling不妥，fall指“落下，掉下”，本身并不强调落下的速度，而crash使“猛跌”，故本题用crashing最佳。
