Question

Their university is located on a beautiful lake, ____ of this developing city.

A．southeast thirty miles	B．thirty miles southeast
C．thirty miles to southeast	D．to thirty miles southeast

Answer 1

B

考查方位表达结构。表达“在……地方多远”时，一般先“距离”，然后“方位”，表示方位的词前加to the，但to the也可以省略，所以C项如果改成thirty miles to the southeast也可以，据此选B项。
