Things were not ———they had been before

问题描述:

Things were not ———they had been before
A.whereD.as
答案是D,我貌似有一点儿理解,我想问为什么不能是A,如果要翻译成那些东西已经不在以前放的那个地儿了 怎么改,谢了

考察的是表语从句,剧中缺少成分.在had been 后面,而选项中as可以做成分,但是where不做句子成分.
那些东西已经不在以前放的那个地儿了
Things are not where they were.表语从句
Things are not at the place where they were before.定语从句
