Question

【题目】What surprised me was not what he said but ________ he said it.

the way

in the way that

in the way

the way which

Answer 1

【答案】A

【解析】not…but…连接两个并列结构，意为“不是……而是……”，what he said是一个名词性从句，相当于一个名词的内容，but后也应是一个名词、名词性短语或名词性从句来与其并列。way后的定语从句一般用in which来引导，可以用that代替in which，that可以省略。he said it是一个定语从句，修饰名词the way。
