　　本文是一篇记叙文。2017年8月3日，中国云南鲁甸县发生了6.5级地震，本文主要叙述了此次地震对该地区所带来的损害以及政府的及时援助。

　　1. killing

　　考查非谓语动词。此句主语the earthquake与kill之间为主动关系，故用killing作结果状语。

　　误解分析：此题考生易误填killed，误以为是谓语动词，根据空格前面的标点符号逗号可知，此处与主语之间并非主谓关系，而应该用非谓语动词现在分词形式killing在句中作结果状语。

　　2. missing

　　考查形容词。missing“失踪的”，即“自2017年8月4日起，三人仍然失踪”，符合语境。

　　误解分析：此题考生易误填入missed，解答此题时需要注意missing本身词性为形容词，意为“失踪的；丢失的”，相当于lost。

　　3. were damaged

　　考查动词。根据语境可知此处表示被动意义，故用were damaged即“受损”。

　　4. depth

　　考查名词。根据空格前面的介词at以及提示词deep可以得知，此处需要用deep的名词形式depth“深度”，即“震源深度10公里”。

　　5. from

　　考查介词。此处表示“距离昭通市18公里”，故用介词from。

　　6. especially

　　考查副词。根据空格后面的动词felt以及提示词可以得知，此处需要用especial的副词形式，表示“尤其是；特别地”。

　　7. that

　　考查连接词。根据此句主语it以及空格后面的从句可以得知, it为形式主语，that引导的真正的主语从句。

　　8. aged

　　考查形容词。根据空格后面的brick structures“砖混结构”可以得知，此处需要用形容词aged表示“古老的”，作定语修饰brick structures。

　　9. well

　　考查固定短语。as well as“以及；也；和”之意，符合语境。

　　10. flew

　　考查动词。根据空格后面的语境to the ...以及前面的语境who可以得知此处考查fly的过去式flew表示“飞往……”。
