这是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述了NBA篮球明星科比和他的女儿在飞机事故中丧生，全世界的球迷都在默哀，事故的原因还在调查之中。

【1】细节理解题。根据文中第一段“Kobe Bryant was killed in a helicopter(直升机) crash on January 26th, 2020, in California, along with his 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven other people.”可知Kobe Bryant，他13岁的女儿Gianna及其他七名人员全部坠机身亡，即总共9人坠机。故选C。

【2】细节理解题。根据文中第四段“Bryant was on his way to attend a youth basketball competition on Sunday with his daughter.”可知那天科比和他的女儿在去参加一个青少年篮球比赛的路上。故选D。

【3】细节理解题。根据文中第三段“The helicopter carrying Bryant and the others crashed into a hilly area in foggy conditions outside Los Angeles.”可知当时是有雾的天气情况。故选B。

【4】细节理解题。根据文中最后一段“The basketball world and the Los Angeles community reacted to Bryant's death with an outpouring of sadness, disbelief and support.”可知篮球界和洛杉矶社区对科比的死反应强烈，充满了悲伤、怀疑。故选D。

【5】推理判断题。根据文中“The helicopter carrying Bryant and the others crashed into a hilly area in foggy conditions outside Los Angeles.”可知载着科比和其他人的直升机在丘陵地区坠毁。所以A选项错误。根据文中第五段“When he retired(退 役) from the NBA in 2016, Bryant was the third-leading scorer in NBA history with 33,643 points.”可知科比在2016年从NBA退役，当时科比以33643分成为NBA历史上第三个得分王。而题干是“33,634 points”所以B选项错误。根据文中第二段“He was widely considered one of the greatest basketball players of his generation during his 20-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers.”可知科比在洛杉矶湖人队20年的职业生涯中被广泛认为是他这一代最伟大的篮球运动员之一。与C选项句意相符。故C选项正确。根据文中“…He is widely expected to be elected to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame this year.”可知在科比被广泛期待入选2020年奈史密斯纪念篮球名人堂。所以D选项错误。故选C。
