Answer 1

B
直到他飞到Cardiff，他才发现婚礼是在2008年。

这是个强调句。强调句的构成：

It is/was +强调部分+that/who....

判断强调句的窍门：

去掉强调句中It is/was...that/who...结构，句意仍然完整。例如这句话：

Only when he had flown into Cardiff did he discover the wedding was in 2008.

或者：

He discovered the wedding was in 2008 only when he had flown into Cardiff.

所以这个句子中强调的部分是时间状语。虽然only when...放在句首句子需要倒装，但是在强调句中，that/who从句为陈述语序，并不倒装。例如：

It was in 1946 that his father was born.

他父亲是在1946年出生的。

Answer 2

B only when 句首后跟倒装语序 Only when +时间+部分倒装（did sb done)；但如果only when 放句中则不倒装。
如1998年高考题It was only when I reread this poems recently _____ I began to appreciate their beauty.
选择的是that 楼主可以把这段话用百度搜索就知道了。这里的考点是强调句型。it is...that...

当他飞到了加的夫，他才发现结婚典礼是2008年举行的

Answer 3

D.
解释：
这是一个强调句型，所以必须用到it was ... that...的结构。
因为前面有了一个only所以后面的主句必须用到倒装的结构，根据时态分析，是一般过去时，那么就把助动词放在主语的前面，后面的动词改为原形，就成了D的这个答案啊。

Answer 4

选B
it was when+从句+that又引导从句
只有当他飞行到Cardiff，才发现婚礼在2008年。

Answer 5

选A
考察倒装，it was only when did sb do sth直到……某人才……

直到他到了Cardiff，才发现婚礼是在2008年举行。
