英语题目8

in 1784, the leaders of what would later become the state of virginia gave up---to the territory that later became five different Midwestern states.,

A any claim
B when the claim
C to claim
D would claim

为什么选A 不选C

Answer 1

应该是A 句子的主语是the leader, of what would later become the state of virginia是定语修饰leader , gave up 是谓语，A选项是gave up 的宾语。B和D不能做宾语，B语义不通。that later became five different Midwestern states是定语从句修饰territory

Answer 2

挑出这个长句的主干部分：the leaders gave up ______ to the territory.
Give up something \ give up doing something
因此根据选项知这题claim做名词，选择a

Answer 3

把这个句子主要的结构拿出来,
In 1784, the leaders gave up any claim to the territory.
give up 后面直接加名词作宾语,不用加to.

Answer 4

B
