题目内容
As for friendship, remember that no time is ever wasted _______ makes two people better friends.
A.what B.that C.when D.as
B
【解析】
试题分析:通过分析句子结构,可知这个句子中包含一个定语从句,修饰先行词time,且关系词在定语从句中作主语,故用that。
考点:分隔式定语从句
点评:定语从句是英语语系中常见的语言表达方式,它的功能是修饰名词或代词,其位置一般是紧接在先行词紧后面。但在英语阅读中,我们常看到这样的句子:The film brought the hours back to me when I was taken good care of in that far-away village.这样的句子就叫分隔式定语从句。
