earliest "wheels" were smooth logs which were used for moving
weights over the earth’s surface. It is a mystery so as to who 【M3】______
invented the first wheel. No one recorded who was or when it 【M4】______

mankind began to roll on one place to another. This type of wheel 【M5】______

选项
答案which—although
解析 句法错误。从语法上来看，“…，which…”是一个典型的非限定性定语从句。但是分析“which”后面的成分我们可以看出，这个从句里并不缺少名词性成分，无法构成定语从句。因此，本句中的两个句子应该是并列或从属关系，应该填人一个适当的连接词。
