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。
