Question

Gun control is a subject _______Americans have argued for a long time.
A.of which
B.with which
C.about which
D.into which
答案是选C,我没有明白为什么是用about,argued不是配介词with么..为什么这里用about,呢

Answer 1

argue with 是指 “与...争论”,但在本题中显然不是这个意思.
argue about 是指 “争论某事”.
本句直译就是说,枪支管理是一个被美国人争论已久的题目.
subject作argue about的宾语,介词放在关系代词which之前了.所以应当选择C.
