Question

—We were surprised to hear that the reason________ she gave for her absence was________ her mother was ill.
—Yes，we saw her mother was at the supermarket that morning.

A．why；that	B．which；that
C．that；because	D．why；because

Answer 1

B

　第一句句意為：我們很驚訝地聽到她給出的缺席理由是母親病了。第一空前面的reason在后面的定語從句中作gave的賓語，符合give a reason for的結(jié)構(gòu)，reason用關(guān)系代詞that/which替代，故排除A、D兩項(xiàng)；第二空考查the reason was that...句型，that引導(dǎo)表語從句。所以答案是B項(xiàng)。
