A is simply, flatout wrong. It could work only as part of a longer sentence: "It was a question that I found difficult to answer."
B is perfectly correct.
C is good if the context is right: "The question was so vague that I found it difficult to answer."
D is wrong.
It's a good idea to check with us if an exam answer or a textbook item doesn't make sense to you. It seems they are often wrong.

The given answer is Ａ.
With A the sentence might be grammatically correct, but I do doubt that native speakers will say such things. So I did some searching on the web of reference.com and google.com, and there are no results for "the question I found difficult to answer" or "the question I found it diffucult to answer".
Could native English teachers kindly help me solve my question?
Thank you very much. |
