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. crashing  


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。
