书摘
本题考查关系从句的先行词。关系副词为why,那么其前的先行词应该是选项（d）reason,解释其事发生或存在的理由，如： I asked the reason for the decision.（我询句做出该英决定的原因。）选项（a）cause表示导致某事发生的原因，如 the cause of explosion （爆炸原因）。选项（b）effect意即“结果”、“效果”，不能与why搭配。选项（c）why不能作先行词，又重复出现，故为错误项。

C. [Westerns.]
The 'Western', or 'cowboy film', has become a classic in the twentieth century. And although few are made today, those that are made are still popular. Why? What is it in a Western that people all over the world enjoy watching? It isn't the scenery, although that may help. Those wide open spaces, the prairies and the rocky hills always put the cowboys into perspective. It isn't the accompanying music, because it is sometimes excellent and sometimes dreadful. Nor is it the violence——and there is often a lot of violence in a Western. Quite a number of people, cowboys and Indians, 'goodies' and 'baddies', are killed along the way. It must be that the Western is characterized by a simple plot and characters that are universal in their appeal. The good man (our hero, perhaps an unwilling sheriff) finds himself in conflict with the 'bad guy , the professional 'gunslinger' or even a gang of them, the 'baddies'——and although he faces tots of challenging situations (sometimes even becoming a 'bad guy' for a while), we know he will be victorious in the end and either get the woman or ride off into the sunset with his faithful horse.
