问题补充：

Nobody believed his reason for being absent from class he had to meet his uncle at the airport.

A. why

B. that

C. where

D. because

答案：

A. why

(答案→)B. that

C. where

D. because

解析：

that在此引导同位语从句，修饰名词his reason。此题的难点是，his reason后带有用作定语的介词短语for being absent from class，如果撇开这个介词短语，问题就变得简单了。
