题目

People in different countries are different in what they eat and ___ they cook their food.
A.however B.the way in that C.the way which D.the way
为什么不是B?
请详细说明每个选项.

答案

首先what they eat and the way they cook their food 这部分作为different in中in 的介词宾语.what they eat 和 the way they cook their food 相互间是并列句,and是用来连接这两个并列句的.what they eat 可以忽略不看,他是完整的并列从句中的一句完整句.
假设用你选定的B,填入句中,...different in the way in that they cook their food.in that 能充当从句中的什么角色呢?从句动词cook的宾语已经有了,是their food,in that的that也是宾语,和their food重复了,冲突了,所以不能用B.
