In 1942, Columbus and his crew arrived ____ was so-called the New World by the westerners.
为什么选A?
解释:
1. arrive是不及物动词,不能直接加宾语(从句),所以必须先加一个介词in(the New World为大地方,所以用in最合适)。根据句意和结构可知,what was so called the New World by the westerners为介词in的宾语,即宾语从句。what在这里相当于the place that。
2. which一般用于定语从句,但是此时从句前面没有表示地方的名词/代词即没有先行词,排除;where同样如此。
which如果引导宾语从句,则其意思是“哪一个/些”,则该从句前后必须有限定的范围方可,排除。如:I wonder which you like best of all these colors. 其中of all these colors即为限定范围。
例句:(A)1. A modern city has been set up in _____ was a wasteland ten years ago .
