In the mid-fifth century, Rome was threatened by Hunnish troops who, led by Attila the Hum, demonstrated his military superiority over the weakened, recently conquered city.
A: who, led by Attila the Hum, demonstrated his military superiority
B: which, led by Attila the Hum, demonstrated their military superiority
C: that Attila the Hum led, who demonstrated his military superiority
D: that Attila the Hum led in demonstrated of their military superiority
E: that were led by Attila the Hum, who demonstrated his military superiority
OA: B
A, C and E are incorrect because of HIS. What about B and D?
Can WHICH refer to TROOPS? Why?
What is this crap!
B can only be correct only and only if we have comma before "which'. I do not see any point debating on the answer.
E is grammatically correct and, as the meaning from the original sentence is not clear, gives a perfect meaning to the sentence. And actually if we see then the original sentence gives some hint --"his"--that the correct answer should have his.
There is no grammatical puzzle in this question. It could be there that the question has typo. In that case, the debate can be done on B and E.
