In the sentence, certain words are in bold and
numbered from A to E, which are the possible pairs to be interchanged. Choose the pair(s) of words which need to be interchanged to make the sentence grammatically correct and meaningful. It is true that salmon and other fish have been (A) banished  from rivers and (B) depredations  in which they once (C) abounded , but this was not (D) owing to the great (E) creeks  of fishermen, as has generally been supposed.Solution
(A) banished â fine (means driven out). (B) depredations â wrong here; "depredations" means attacks or plundering, but weâre referring to locations. (C) abounded â correct usage. (D) owing â âthis was not owing to...â = correct idiomatic usage. (E) creeks â awkward. âCreeksâ are small rivers, doesnât fit âgreat creeks of fishermen.â Itâs likely (E) should be depredations, which fits "great depredations". Revised sentence:
It is true that salmon and other fish have been banished from rivers and creeks in which they once abounded, but this was not owing to the great depredations of fishermen, as has generally been supposed.
