Question

When I saw a lot of people gathering over there, I went over to see ______.

A. what was the matter B. what the matter was

C. what was happened D. what was the wrong
答案是A，请解析一下

Answer 1

选A
这里掘搭哗what短语充当宾语，what引导的是宾语枝猛从句，因其在判行句子中充当宾语成分，因此只需要用正常语序即可，不需要用倒装语序。
所以排除B
Dwhat was wrong.wrong前面不加the
C 这里应该用进行时，因为意思是：正在发生什么。
