请教一道英语选择题，谢谢

Because of air pollution being greatly reduced, this city is still __________.
A. a good place which to be lived in B. lived as a good place
C. a good place to live in D. living in as a good place
答案是C，请问为什么A不对？

Answer 1

答：本题设计得兆碰脊不好。Because of +名词+(定语为分词短语），因为。。。的空气污染，（所以）这个城市仍然是一个居住的好地方。 这样的句子有语病！
应改为：As/Because air pollution is greatly reduced, this city is still a good place to live in.
由于（因为）空气污染已经大大减少，（所以说）这所城市仍然是一个居住的好地方吵铅。
不过本题的考点不在状语，而在主句中。在主句中a good place后的定语部分。
句型：sth. is +adj. +to +及物动词。比如：sth. is easy to do.=To do sth. is easy.
这里用不定式的主动态表被动。
类似的I have sth. to do .中的to do也是用不定式的主动表被动，在这里是作sth.的后置定语的。
The city is a good place to live in. ==The city is a good place (for us/everyone) to live in.
交流双方（大家）都知道，这不定式的逻辑主语是“人”，是“大家”，所以为了句子的简洁，就用不定式的主动式作后置定语了。
其实，不定式作定语时，其逻辑主语就是被它所修饰的名词（或代词），你的思维并没有错：place和live in是被动关系。说：The city is still a good place to be lived in (by people) =The city is still a place that is to be lived in (by people).
BD项为凑数项，你能排除，就不去说了。
A项为什么不可以呢？你可能见过介词+which +不定式作后置定语的句式吧？
如：We need more actual facts on which to base our arguments.
本句中的on which to base our arguments就是。=We need more actual facts on which we can base our arguments.=We need more actual facts (which/that) we can base our arguments on.
在定语从句时，介词on可以放在关系代词which前，也可以留在句子后面，但是族渗改用特殊不定式时，则必须是介词+which+to do sth.
为避免一题有两个答案，为避免争议，出题者没有将A中的in放在which的前面。不然，你的：
this city is still a good place in which to be lived . 说不定也是可以的。

Answer 2

不符合英语姿并的惯用法。
英语中有一基本森皮句型： 做.....是....的。
.it'迹春迹s + 形容词 +(for sb) to do sth= sth be +形容词+to do(不用被动)

Answer 3

which to be不定式即非谓语形式to do表将来 将要被住的地方 所以是雀竖备C a good place to live in 一个要住的好顷毁地方纤伍 to live in作good place的后置定语

Answer 4

如咐粗型衡猜果去掉be 就可 以选了，which是修饰前面的place， live in a good place.居凳历住的好地方
be lived in a place,被居住的好地方

Answer 5

to be done:指(动作)尚待实施.
例:The coat is to be washed.
衣服需要有人来洗.
这道题中动作已经实空卜返施，而弊运不是尚待实施，斗饥所以选C，A不对

Answer 6

A是被动语态所以不行
