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

A


解析:

 crash(to the ground)猛跌(到地上)。Crash n.

常指飛機(jī)等的“失事”,如:He was killed in an aircraft crash.(他在飛機(jī)失事中喪生。)本句中用falling不妥,fall指“落下,掉下”,本身并不強(qiáng)調(diào)落下的速度,而crash使“猛跌”,故本題用crashing最佳。
