Question

英语动词填空

Four people were killed,and four others___(miss)as the flood hit the village,__(affect) more than hundreds of people.
解答，说明一下第一空

Answer 1

第一空答案是：missing

解释：
four others missed = four others were missing
该句和前面的four people were killed是用and连接的并列句，所以它可以省略动词were
missing = lost，可做形容词，意思是丢失的，失踪的“。
