Hello. I'd appreciate if if you could help.
I saw this sentence in a dictionary
The evaluators' initial impression was ( A ) of a school with a fairly traditional outlook but one in which facilities were enviable.
Q1. I assume a word is omitted in ( A ) but I have no idea. What would that be?
Q2. What does the underlined 'one' represent for?
