选择 lie many lakes 解析：
1）本句是倒装语序，如果用正常语序应该是 many lakes, ..., lie in the dark forests。 这里所以用倒装是由于主语部分包括 一个同位语some large enough to hold several towns，整个句子显得头重脚轻，为了改变这种凝重的结构，就把比较短的表语介词短语放在句首，而主语和同位语则一起放在谓语动词后，使得句子显得平衡。 这类句子在实践中可以经常使用，如：
In fron of Tian An Men lies a large Square with a grand monument. 天安门前有耸立着一座雄伟纪念碑
