问题 The domesticated camel, which some scholars date around the twelfth century B.C., was the key to the development of the spice trade in the ancient world.

选项 A、The domesticated camel, which some scholars date
B、The domesticated camel, which some scholars have thought to occur
C、Domesticating the camel, dated by some scholars at
D、The domestication of the camel, thought by some scholars to have occurred
E、The camel’s domestication, dated by some scholars to have been

答案D

解析 A、B的主语与之后的系表搭配不符合逻辑;C中:用动名词短语作主语,强调“驯养”的动作;而本句中是强调状态,应该用名词domestication。本句的意思是:对骆驼进行驯养这一实践活动是香料贸易发展的关键。E中:dated之后跟to have been与date的习惯用法不符,且been表状态不妥,应用occurred强调动作;D中,thought to have occurred既符合表达习惯,又反映了两个动作的先后顺序。
