Suppose a student asks you if 'whose' in the following academic passage is wrong.“There is a way of proceeding in conceptual matters whose method is to define away any inconvenient difficulty." (Biber et al, 1999, p. 617)The alternative with the correct answer and comment is:
- Awrong; 'whose' cannot be used with inanimate noun phrases
- Bwrong; 'which' is the correct relativizer in academic English
- Cwrong; 'of which' is the correct relativizer in academic English
- Dcorrect; in academic English 'whose' occurs almost as often as 'of which'
- Ecorrect; in academic English 'whose' is not used with animate noun phrases
