D. og说redundant。 谁能解释下 怎么redundant。use as 可以这么用啊······
句子开头是Declining values for farm equipment and land,那就需要一个与之匹配的逻辑主语,which 应到的句子做逻辑主语与declining配不上啊。而且如果从句做主语的话,应该是用that做引导词。而且use +as不是很怪么, use什么as啊,也没有这样的搭配,最后against什么呢?

Declining values for farm equipment and land 本身就是主语哈。所以不存在逻辑主语哦 ···
对。我记得上高中的时候老师讲过,先行词放在介词后不能用that 而应该用which 并且看国外一个NN的解释哈 I think a lot of people get confused by the separation of a relative pronoun from the noun to which it's referring. That is, when I say:
"This is the post which will explain everything,"
it is easy to see that "which" refers to "post." It gets a little bit harder (but it shouldn't!) when I say:
"This is the post in which I will explain everything."
Here the word "in" is inserted but it's still okay. The reason that we have "in which" is that, logically, if we made the Relative Clause ("in which I will explain everything") into the main sentence, it would read: "I will explain everything in this post." So, since "post," replaced by "which" in the original sentence, would be the object of "in," "which" should also be the object of "in," so they have to go together: "in which" instead of "in the post."
No problem so far. But then it turns into this:
"This is the post the topic of which will be the explanation of everything."
Again, take the relative clause and pretend it's the main sentence. It would read: "The topic of this post will be the explanation of everything." This sentence would NOT make sense if we split up the left hand side. "Of this post, the topic will be the explanation of everything"? NO. The only way it makes sense is if "the topic of this post" is all together at the beginning of the sentence. As a result, when we use a relative clause, we have to slip "which" into its rightful place in the same construction. This leads us to the seemingly-awkward-but-actually-correct "the topic of which."
So, when you see a few words before the "which" or "who" or other relative pronoun, words that are part of the logic of the Relative Clause, realize that that's totally okay: the "which" still refers to the last noun or noun idea in the previous clause and, as long as it's in its rightful position in the logic of the relative clause, it's not only correct, it's actually grammatically clearer.
