The reason______ he gave for being absent from school was ______ he had to attend his sick mother at home. A. which; because B. why; because C.不填; that D. why; that
答案:C 解析: 先行词为表原因的the reason, 且从句中的gave缺宾语, 所以第一空用关系代词that 或which用作gave的宾语, that 或which可以省略; 第二空是由that引导的表语从句, 即The reason …is/ was that…句式。
