对,in which 和when地位是平等的,但是比where好,所以不能根据这个排除in which ...
根据Ron的答复。Peggy说的是对的。 刚刚看懂D选项的 existed in current temperate areas 是说 ice sheet 存在于当前的温带。 跟B答案有本质的区别。 B答案是说: 存在于当前是温带的区域(隐藏含义,之前不是)。 而E ares Now that are temperate 一个是now的位置不对,体会于 areas that are now temperate的区别
Ron:the emphasis of the sentence is on the fact that the ice sheets ACTUALLY EXISTED during this time. the sentence is not meant to emphasize the persistence of the ice sheets before that age, nor is it meant to suggest that the existence of the ice sheets was a completed action. therefore, the regular past tense is better.
