选择答案,请说明原因

Answer 1

选A

这句话在讲他说话的方式使我惊奇
What surprised me was not what he said but the way （that）he said it.这里that可以省去，that相当于in which，也就说The way in which he said surprised me.

Answer 2

A. the way 固定用法

Answer 3

A. the way
省略that.
不妨这样理解：
It's the way (that he said it) that surprised me.
The way (that he said it)surprised me.

只有the way 能做主语。

Answer 4

what
surprised
me
was
not
what
he
said
but
__
he
said
it.
选a
这是the
way引导的定语从句
后面可以加三种形式【+that/in
which/不填】
所以这边只能选a
