My uncle is quite worn out from years of hard work. He is no longer the man ___ he was fifteen years ago. (2011英语专四51题)
A. Which B. whom C. who D. that
答案:D
解析:关系代词在定语从句中做表语时,无论指人还是指物,通常用that,不用which或who,且that也可以省略。
再如:
1、China is not the country (that) it was. 中国不是从前的那个国家。
2、Mary is no longer the girl (that) she used to be. 玛丽不是过去的那个女孩了。
