答案解析
正确答案:B
解析:
这道题考查的是**定语从句中关系代词的选择**。
**1. 句子结构分析**
原句为:“The first arrivals were mostly seamen ____2____ worked on steamships.”
* **先行词**:`seamen`(海员),指人。
* **从句部分**:`____ worked on steamships`。
* **从句成分分析**:在这个从句中,谓语动词是 `worked`,缺少的是**主语**。
**2. 选项辨析**
* **A. whom**:关系代词,指人,但在定语从句中只能作**宾语**(如动词或介词的宾语),不能作主语。
* **B. who**:关系代词,指人,在定语从句中可以作**主语**或宾语。
* **C. whose**:关系代词,表示所属关系(“……的”),在从句中作定语,后面必须接名词。
**3. 解题逻辑**
由于空格处在从句中充当 `worked` 的**主语**,且先行词 `seamen` 是人,因此必须使用能作主语的关系代词 **who**。
* 若选 A (whom):语法错误,因为 whom 不能作主语。
* 若选 C (whose):语义不通,且后面没有紧跟名词。
* 选 B (who):正确,构成 “seamen who worked...”(在蒸汽船上工作的海员)。
**结论**
正确答案是 **B**。
