Question

It would seem to be a general truth__________ nothing is as straightforward as it at first seems.

A．that

B．when

C．what

D．if

Answer 1

A

试题分析：句意：没有什么起初似乎是简单易懂，这似乎是一个一般的真理。It是形式主语，nothing is as straightforward as it at first seems是真正的主语从句，其中nothing是主语，as straightforward as it at first seems是表语。这个主语从句主语，表语齐全，故用that。that只引导名词性从句，不做句子的成分。When表示时间，在句中作状语。what 充当名词性从句的主语，宾语和表语。If 表示是否。故选A。
