B.       a plant that they now commonly call

请问为什么选C?

A哪里错？

A 中的they没有指代对象

seanceserene

what的结构肯定不对，B的结构都比A好。但是AB的they都没有指代。关于为什么不能用

what结构，因为同位语没有这种结构。同位语的用法请参见BY或PREP。

为什么they不能指代the ancient Anasazi呢？

Kath1986

因為這樣的語意會變得很奇怪。the ancient Anasazi 應該表示的是古時候的人，這樣的話就不會用they now commonly call 了
