前几天在做princeton模考时碰到一道题：

Renowned for both his wealth and his eccentricity, industrialist Howard Hughes left behind a series of wills and codicils of staggering complexity, one that took teams of lawyers and squabbling beneficiaries years to sort it out. （B）

A. took teams of lawyers and squabbling beneficiaries years to sort it out

B. took teams of lawyers and squabbling beneficiaries years to sort out

OG上

183. Archaeologists in LACE w:st="on">IrelandLACE> believe that a recently discovered chalice, which dates from the eighth century, was probably buried to keep from being stolen by invaders.

(A) to keep from

(B) to keep it from

(C) to avoid

(D) in order that it would avoid（B）

(E) in order to keep from

两个句子里都是表示主语被人。。。，为什么答案却相反呢？？？

同等牛人解答

实在是没查到sort out的合理解释，是不是princeton的答案错了？？？

再顶

在第一道题目里，被sort out是：a series of wills and codicils。

那么显然不能用it来指代了。

在第二题里，it很明确的指代的就是a recently discovered chalice。

第一题是that 引导的定于从句，

第二题是to 引导的目的壮语从句。

肯定不一样的。
