当前位置：The runner,
单选题 The runner, which for the competition for the first time in a major track meet, waited patiently in the starting blocks.
A.who was for the competition
B.that was about to compete
C.that was for the competition
D.who was about to compete
正确答案： D
答案解析: 本题重点考查定语从句的用法。从句子结构来看，画线部分应当是非限制性定语从句修饰the runner,但是它又没有完整的主谓结构，而且引导它的关系代词也用错了。四个选项中首先可以排除B和C,由于先行词是人，所以后面的关系代词应当用who。但是A也是错误的，原因是介词for表示“赞成，支持”的意思。故选D，其中的beabouttodo表示即将做某事，符合题意。
