B、where
C、unless
D、though
【正确答案】:A
【题目解析】:在第29题中,我们需要选择一个合适的连词来连接句子中的两个部分:“It has become...for old people to move south to these places”和“they retire”。 A选项“when”表示当...时候,引导时间状语从句,符合句意,即“当老人退休的时候,他们迁移到南方这些地方已经成为了一种趋势”。 B选项“where”通常引导地点状语从句或定语从句,表示在...地方,但在此句中,并不适用,因为句子要表达的是时间关系,而不是地点关系。 C选项“unless”表示除非,如果不,用于引导条件状语从句,但在此句中,并不适用,因为句子并没有表达“如果不退休就不迁移”这样的条件关系。 D选项“though”表示尽管,虽然,用于引导让步状语从句,但在此句中,并不适用,因为句子并没有表达让步关系。 因此,根据句子的结构和语境,选择A选项“when”是最合适的。
