Question

求帮忙解析下这道英语题，我知道答案，不知道为什么

They wanted a series of statues to adorn the cathedral's exterior, _____ high on buttresses so that the art could be admired from afar. A.placing b.B. they were placed c.which were placed D.placed 为什么不选A B

Answer 1

首先，从整个句子来看是一个句子，因为没有连词。既然是一个句子，那么填空处后面的这句话就是一个从句。从而可以排除B

从句也应有相应的主语，谓语和宾语。从而可以排除A

希望我说明白了！

答案是D 不知道为啥

追答

你提醒得对，D作为伴随状语也是可以的，C项如果是which would be placed,也是对的

你可以和老师确认下

Answer 2

D
placed 对statues的补充说明 placing是主动 they were placed they指代不明 which were placed 时态不符 只是想法还未实现不能用既定的过去时 placed被动符合题义

Answer 3

which引导的非限制性定语从句

Answer 4

Which 引导的定语从句，还有被动的意思！
