這是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述了一次飛機失事事件，Helen Monahan因為比往常早5分鐘離開家接孩子逃過一劫；飛機駕駛者，外科醫(yī)生Mr Campbell，也只受了輕傷。事故原因還在調(diào)查中。

【1】考查形容詞性物主代詞。句意：當海倫接到一個電話讓她接自己孩子的同時順便接朋友的孩子時，她抓起外套，朝馬路走去。根據(jù)短語one’s own可判斷空格處用形容詞性物主代詞，再根據(jù)句意此處應(yīng)為“她自己的”，故填her。

【2】考查固定短語。句意：那就意味著要比她計劃的早5分鐘離開家，但竟然救了她的命。根據(jù)句意可知，此處應(yīng)為“意味著做某事”，其固定表達為mean doing。故填leaving。

【3】考查時間狀語連詞。句意：她關(guān)上門的幾分鐘后，一架輕型飛機撞向她家空蕩蕩的房子。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，此處填連詞；聯(lián)系上下文，是關(guān)門之后才發(fā)生了事故。故填after。

【4】考查賓語從句連詞。句意：我盡量不去想，如果我在正常時間離開家會發(fā)生什么。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，此處是賓語從句，從句___4___ would have happened缺少主語，且指物，故用連接代詞what。故填what。

【5】考查介詞。句意：這位52歲的外科醫(yī)生從廢墟中走出來，臉部和頭部只受了輕傷。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，此處填介詞；再聯(lián)系句意，此處表“帶著/有輕傷”，介詞with可以表示此意。故填with。

【6】考查現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語。句意：它的引擎熄火了，這架飛機一頭扎進了一座鐵路橋，撞上了海濱小鎮(zhèn)上價值15萬英鎊的三居室房屋。分析句子可知，此處用非謂語動詞，crash的邏輯主語it和它之間是主動關(guān)系，故用現(xiàn)在分詞。故填crashing。

【7】考查時態(tài)和語態(tài)。句意：它掉到后院去了，和孩子們的玩具混在一起。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，此處是定語從句的謂語動詞，which指代前文的it，即車；車和扔之間是被動關(guān)系，故用被動語態(tài)，主語是單數(shù)，時態(tài)為一般過去時。故填was littered。

【8】考查定語從句。句意：Campbell先生在全國各地飛為他私人診所的病人提供治療，他說：“我剛到機場，兩個引擎都熄火了，它開始急劇往一邊偏離航線。”分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，此處是非限制性定語從句，先行詞是Mr Campbell，指人，定語從句___8___ flies all over the country to treat the patients of his private practice缺少主語，故用關(guān)系代詞who。故填who。

【9】考查推測句。句意：機翼尖肯定撞到了房頂，它有點粗糙。根據(jù)句意判斷此處是對過去情況的肯定推測，其固定結(jié)構(gòu)為must have done。故填have hit。

【10】考查不定式表目的。句意：安全官員昨晚檢查了飛機，試圖找出問題的所在。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，此處用非謂語動詞，再結(jié)合句意，檢查的目的是發(fā)現(xiàn)問題，表目的用不定式。故填 to try。

第8小題是定語從句，定語從句的解題步驟定語從句解題步驟：找出先行詞；分析定語從句成分（確定關(guān)系詞）；考慮特殊情況

Mr Campbell, ___8___ flies all over the country to treat the patients of his private practice, said: “I was coming into the airport and both engines cut out. It began to yaw (偏離航線）quite sharply to one side.

1） 先行詞是Mr Campbell，指人

2） 從句___8___ flies all over the country to treat the patients of his private practice缺少主語，所以使用關(guān)系代詞who/that

3） 因為是非限制性定語從句，只能用who
