本题考查八年级英语词形变换与上下文语境填词，逐空解析如下：
1. 固定结构"none of"后需接可数名词复数，passenger的复数形式为passengers。
2. 固定搭配start to do sth.，不定式符号to后接动词原形，直接填blow。
3. 此处表达"几分钟之内"的含义，句首单词首字母需大写，填Within。
4. 此处修饰整个句子，需要用副词作状语，sudden的副词形式为Suddenly，句首首字母大写。
5. 固定搭配start to do sth.，不定式符号to后接动词原形，名词blood对应的动词"流血"为bleed。
6. 系动词turn后接形容词作表语，pale本身是形容词，意为苍白的，直接填pale。
7. 固定结构"the + 形容词"可指代一类人，the injured表示"受伤的人"，符合语境。
8. 此处为不定式作目的状语，不定式符号to后接动词原形，直接填reduce。
9. 前半句意为"外面的雪一直下"，后半句意为"温暖和爱意充满了车厢"，前后为转折逻辑关系，填转折连词but。
10. 空后be动词为are，说明主语是复数形式，disaster的复数形式为disasters。
