這是一篇記敘文，文章主要講述第一次一顆拯救生命的手術(shù)所需的心臟被一架無人機(jī)運(yùn)輸，使得美國(guó)一位女士的心臟手術(shù)得以進(jìn)行。

【1】

句意：從空中進(jìn)行救生援助不是經(jīng)常發(fā)生，但是這就是發(fā)生在美國(guó)一位病人身上的事情。

主語(yǔ)life-saving help后面缺謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞，主語(yǔ)是單數(shù)，用動(dòng)詞的第三人稱單數(shù)形式；此處用drops in表示“突然到訪”。故選B。

【2】

句意：她等待心臟移植等了八年，最后聽說手術(shù)可以進(jìn)行了。

could后面用動(dòng)詞原形，根據(jù)“the operation”可知此處用動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)go ahead表示“進(jìn)行”。故選E。

【3】

句意：這些手術(shù)是從一個(gè)人的身體里取出器官，比如心臟，然后放入另一個(gè)人的身體里，那個(gè)人需要靠這個(gè)器官才能活下來。

need it后面用動(dòng)詞不定式做目的狀語(yǔ)，此處用動(dòng)詞原形survive表示“活下來，生存”。故選A。

【4】

句意：這種無人機(jī)是為運(yùn)送醫(yī)療用品和器官而制造的，它可以在適當(dāng)?shù)臏囟认卤ＷC心臟的安全。

主語(yǔ)this drone是“被人創(chuàng)造”，此處用的是一般過去時(shí)態(tài)的被動(dòng)形式，故選C。
