题目内容
He was sentenced to death __________ what he had stolen from the bank.
A. that B. since
C. because D. because of
解析:
一般说来, because作为从属连词, 用以引导原因状语从句时, 其后应是一个不含有引导词的句子, 而不能是what引导的从句。另一方面, 本题中的what he had stolen=the thing(s) that he had stolen, 也就是说, 这个what从句从本质上说, 它相当于一个名词(或者更准确地说是一个受定语从句修饰的名词), 所以此题应选because of。
