Why should which be used?
Hello to you all.
I`d like to ask you a question about the following sentence as a part of a grammar-testing module:
Bob is left-handed, ___ no one else in our family is.
a. which
b. who
c. that
d. for which
Which is said to be the correct answer but it sounds quite unusual to me. Apart from the test, are there any other opportunities to fill in the gap without changing the meaning of the sentence?
I`d appreciate any help. Thank you in advance.
