When the German cruise ship Wilhelm Gustloff was hit by torpedoes fired from a Russian submarine in the final winter of World War II, more than 10,000 people—mostly women, children and old people【C2】________ the final Red Army push into Nazi Germany—were packed aboard. An ice storm had turned the decks into frozen sheets that sent hundreds of families【C3】________ into the sea as the ship tilted and began to go down. Others desperately tried to put lifeboats down. Some, who succeeded, fought off those in the water who had the strength to try to【C4】________ their way aboard. Most people froze immediately. "I’ll never forget the screams,” says Christa Ntitzmann, 87, one of the 1,200 survivors. She recalls watching the ship, brightly lit, slipping into its dark grave and into seeming【C5】________ , rarely mentioned for more than half a century.
Now Germany’s Nobel Prize-winning author Gtinter Grass has【C6】________ the memory of the 9,000 dead, including more than 4,000 children—with his latest novel "Crab Walk" , published last month. The book, which will come【C7】________ in English next year, doesn’t【C8】________ on the sinking; its heroine is a pregnant young woman who survives the catastrophe only to say later: "Nobody wanted to hear about it, not here in the West (of Germany) and not at all in the East." The reason was【C9】________ .

M. relived N. slipping O. fleeing [br] 【C2】
选项
答案
O
解析
上下文题。根据词性,此处应当填入后置定语,且空格后跟名词宾语,可推测为动词的-ing分词做后置定语。空格后的内容是苏联红军最后一批挺进德国(push表示大规模进攻),而句子的主语是德国的妇女、老人、孩子,根据这一逻辑可以推断他们正在逃难,故选择fleeing,flee sb./sth.;flee(from sb./sth.)“(可作及物或不及物动词)逃跑;逃避;避开;(尤指遇到危险、威胁等)逃离”。
