I stood on the deck, 【1】( stare) at the huge waves. From the moment we had left port and sailed into the English Channel, 【2】 weather had got worse and worse. Now, lightning flashed across the sky , 【3】was covered in dark clouds.
Suddenly, the noise of the engines stopped. The ship slowed, rolling heavily in the rough sea. A voice over the loudspeaker told us 【4】(remain) calm — then added that a fire 【5】(start) in the engine room, and said that all passengers must go 【6】(immediate) to the nearest lifeboat station.
We all ran onto the deck, following the signs to the lifeboats. The ship’s officers arrived, made sure we had life jackets and showed us 【7】 to put them on.
I looked again in horror at the wild, stormy sea. The 【8】(think) of being out there in a tiny boat was 【9】 (terrify). Minutes passed like hours, until at last a voice announced that everything was 【10】 control and the danger was over.We all cheered as the engines started again and the ship moved forward into the waves.
I still couldn’t believe it was over, though — not until we had reached port and I was standing on solid ground again!

【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者一次有惊无险的海上航行经历。
【1】
考查非谓语动词。句意:我站在甲板上,盯着巨浪看。分析句子可知,本句中已有谓语动词,空处应使用非谓语动词,动词stare与主语I之前是主谓关系,所以使用现在分词作状语。故填staring。
【2】
考查冠词。句意:从我们离开港口向英吉利海峡航行的时刻,天气就变得越来越糟糕。weather是不可数名词,意为“天气”,这里特指当时的天气,所以用定冠词the。故填the。
【3】
考查定语从句。句意:现在,闪电划过天空,天空被笼罩在乌云之中。分析句子可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是the sky,关系词在从句中作主语,应使用which引导。故填which。
【4】
考查非谓语动词。句意:扩音器中的一个声音告诉我们要保持冷静。tell sb. to do sth.是固定搭配,所以空处应使用动词不定式。故填to remain。
【5】
考查时态。句意:然后补充说船舱起火了。“then added that…”使用的是一般过去时,start表示的动作发生在此之前,属于“过去的过去”,应用过去完成时。故填had started。
【6】
考查副词。句意:并说所有的乘客必须立即去最近的救生站。空处修饰动词go,应使用副词,故填immediately。
【7】
考查宾语从句。句意:船上的军官到了,确保我们有救生衣,并向我们展示如何穿上它们。分析句子可知,此处是指军官向我们展示“如何”穿救生衣,应使用how引导宾语从句,表示方式。故填how。
【8】
考查名词。句意:想到在海上的一个小船里,这个想法很可怕。根据空前的The可知,空处应填一个名词作主语,thought意为“想法”。故填thought。
【9】
考查形容词。根据空前的was可知,空处应填一个形容词作表语。terrifying意为“可怕的”。故填terrifying。
【10】
考查介词。句意:几分钟的时间过得像几个小时,直到最后一个声音宣布一切都控制住了,危险结束了。根据“the danger was over”可知,此处指一切都“处于控制之中”,under control意为“处于控制状态,受到控制”。故填under。
