1. A.
   where
2. B.
   that
3. C.
   which
4. D.
   when

Answer 1

A
该句为强调句型，但省略了that之后的部分，完整的句子为It was at Gettysburg thousands of soldiers were buried that President Lincoln made this famous speech．，全句意为“林肯总统是在Gettysburg发表了这一著名的演讲，有千百万的士兵被埋葬在那里”。所以Gettysburg后面接的是where引导的定语从句，where在从句中作地点状语。如果选that，则表示“千百万的士兵是被埋葬在了Gettysburg。”，答非所问。
