    The Klondike was the_____ of one of the biggest gold rushes the world has ever known.

    　　A. scene   B. view   C. event    D. landscape

    A


    解析:

    四个词都是较为常见词汇。其中，scene是“现场，场面，情景，景色”；view是“景色，风景，观点，见解”；event是“事件”， landscape“风景，山水画，地形”。从句意（克朗代克河地区是人们迄今为止所知道的最大淘金热（发生地）之一）来看scene的含义是“地点”，所以答案是A。
