英语单选求解：There is a garden,in front of _____ seated an old man. A.it B.what C.which D.where

There is a garden,in front of _____ seated an old man.
A.it B.what C.which D.where

Answer 1

　　C.which

追问

那请问which指的是garden，后面谓语是seated，这怎么翻译？

追答

　　如果全句的后半部分做成非限制性定语从句，应是：in front of which was seated an old man.，这是倒装句式，但是题干中没有was，如果真没有was，只能勉强地选A.it ，看作过去分词seated的独立主格结构，但这样的说法比较罕见。
