答案解析:(1)画线部分错误分析。
 本题的考点有两处:①动词elect的搭配;②介词+ which引导的定语从句。主句中的
 the first black member of the U.S. Senate 是 Hiram Revels 的同位语,an office where he
 was elected in 1870是senator的同位语,即an office指senator这个职位,所以正确的
 搭配应该是 he was elected to the (an) office。
 (2)选项分析。
 根据上述分析,本题考查动词elect的搭配,根据elect ...to (as)的固定用法,A、B、
 D选项均可排除。此外,本题还涉及定语从句中“介词+关系词which”代替where
 的用法,an office to which he was elected in 1870 有时也可替换为 an office where he was
 elected in 1870,但后者有歧义,where还有可能是in which,与本句的语义不一致。
 [译文]希拉姆赖尔斯是美国参议院的第一位黑人议员,1870年他当选为密西西比州
 参议员。
