alanguo

The Olympic Games helped to keep peace among the pugnacious states of the Greek world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month.

(A) world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month

(B) world, proclaiming a sacred truce during the festival's month

(C) world when they proclaimed a sacred truce for the festival month

(D) world, for a sacred truce was proclaimed during the month of the festival     

(E) world by proclamation of a sacred truce that was for the month of the festival

答案是D。为什么A用 in that 不好？解释说“...because in that has largely gone out of use, it is considered stilted and overly formal...”。可我记得有考 in that 的真题。

Believe what ETS says, for he is  right.

Also, I would not pick A because it says 'festival's month' .  It is more idomatic to say the month of the festival.  The festival is in some month, but it does not process a month.
