become that of 短语的固定解释
what was formerly called "the basket of vegetables" has now become that of varied food

1.翻译:以前人们称为“菜篮子”的现在已经变成了各种食物的篮子了.
(这句话在说:以前(指刚改革开放时)人们仅要求有菜吃,发展到今天人们能吃到的比当初想要的丰富多了.)
2.that 代指 the basket.即整个句子是:
What was formerly called "the basket of vegetables" has now become the basket of varied food.
不过英语中人们一般不这么去重复一个词或短语 (the basket 被重复),他们会用代词 that (代指前面出现的单数名词) 或 those (代指前面出现的复数名词).可参考语法书查代词 that 和 those 的替代功能用法.
3.这句中根本不存在一个 become that of 短语.不能因为这三个词在空间上在一起就说它们是短语.为了说明问题,举个极端的你不可能有问题的例子:请问,那个句子中 "formerly called the" 谁也不知道!它们只是空间上在一起而已.
4.记得不久前有位问 grass around 网友们纷纷提供帮助,有网友要其提供上下文,才知道是 "The grass around my house is very tall/thick." 这么个句子!她就仅仅是空间上在一起的 grass around 拿来提问,得到的答案可想而知.
