(A) its many problems had been the recent

(B) its many problems has been the recently

(C) its many problems is the recently

(D) their many problems is the recent

(E) their many problems had been the recent 请问这里的it 怎么可以指the seven-store retailer, retailer 不是人吗? 谢谢...

retailer是指零售商，按说指人，不过这里我想它代表一个店子吧，既然后面用it, 就可以用来作为选项的指示， 排除D和E。

是呀，毕竟retailer前面还有个修饰词seven-store呢。字典里面retailer

也有零售店的意思啊。
