语法与词汇 17.______ River Ganges is the most sacred river to Hindus and is also a lifeline to millions of Indians who live along its course and depend on it for their daily needs.
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】句意：恒河是印度教教徒心中最神圣的河流，也是几百万印度人的生命线，他们居住在河流沿岸，并靠它满足日常所需。在英语中，江河、海洋、湖泊等专有名词前要加定冠词the，如the Yellow River。由此可知，A项符合题意。
