Which one is the best answer? Could you help to analyze the grammar structure for me?
Things have changed quickly over the past decade and life in the country is much better than ____ used to be.
A. that      B. it     C. what     D. one

Answer

b)' It' is the correct answer as 'it' is the subject of 'used to be' and refers to' life in the country'. 'That' and 'what' cannot be used as the subject in this sentence. 'That' is usually followed by a relative clause which is not the case here. You could say 'better than what it used to be'. 'One' as a subject refers to people in general.

Answer

it :)
