参考答案及详解

1. B) 根据语义线索可知，故事发生在飞机上，人们坐飞机的时候都要系安全带。“系安全带”用动词fasten seat belts。故选项B为正确答案。

2. C) 根据上句，飞机在飞行过程中，突然出现了异常的晃动，根据非语言线索即常识可知这时一般空中小姐要出来解释一下或察看有没有受伤的乘客，另外根据词汇线索即下文出现的she可指，选项C为正确答案。Steward指男性的乘务员，pilot意为“飞机驾驶员”，crew为“机组”都不合适。

3. B) 根据上下文可判断此句句义：空姐迅速但是小声地告诉大家飞机驾驶员昏了过去。四个选项中announce, report是不及物动词，不符;inform是及物动词，意为“通知”，一般

可用在短语inform sb. of sth.或inform sb. that...中，例如：Have you informed the m of your intended departure?你已经通知他们你要离开吗?We were informed that two prisoners

had escaped from the prison.我们获知两名犯人从监狱中逃了出来。

4. B) 根据语义线索和语法线索可确定if为正确答案，句义为：…问是否有人知道一些机械原理或至少怎样开车。

5. A) 根据语义线索可知此空应使用介词after，意为：在一阵犹豫之后。

6. A) 根据上文可知飞行员已经昏了过去，所以只有把他移到move一边去，故选项A 为正确答案。

7. D) 根据句义：这个人把飞行员移到一边后，坐在了飞行员的位置上，从而可以确定选项D为正确答案。其他三项意义或用法不符。

8. C) 根据语义线索可知此时飞机飞行在机场上空，另外根据语法线索此空需要一个可以放在名词后面修饰的副词，故只有below正确。

9. B) 根据上下文由于开飞机的人并不是飞机驾驶员，他只能靠地面机场传送来的指令操作飞机，由此可以判断飞机非常贴近地面，也非常危险。故此处使用介词close to。

10. A) 根据语义线索和词汇线索可知选项A为正确答案。to one’s relief是固定搭配，意为“令人欣慰的”。

11. B) 根据句义和语法线索可知选项B had to为正确答案。

12. D) 根据语义线索可以判断飞机在着陆的时候由于驾驶员不专业，引起了激烈的摇晃，故选项D为正确答案。Falteringly意为“支吾地，口吃地”，与题意不符。

13. D) 根据文章可知飞机在经过很长的滑行后才停下，故选项D为正确答案。另外其他三项的词义在此处不符。
