B.thatC.whether

D.why参考答案：B试题分析：题目考查表语从句。句意：雨季最令人愉悦的就是人们可以完全不再受到沙尘的困扰。Is后跟从句作表语，即表语从句，表语从句不缺少主语、谓语和宾语，因此用that，只起引导作用，故选B。【名师点睛】表语从句PredictiveClauses(在be动词后)1.从句的连接词可以是that,也可以是wh-。例如：Thefactisthatsheneverlikedhim.Thequestioniswhetherthemovieisworthseeing.Thequestioniswhocancompletethedifficulttask.◆This/That/Itisbecause…Ithinkitisbecauseyouaredoingtoomuch.◆Thereasonwhy…isthat…Thereasonwhytheplayissuccessfulisthatitappealstomanydifferentpeople.2.只能用whether的情况*

在表语从句、主语从句、同位语从句中*

在介词后的宾语从句中例如：Italldependsonwhethertheywillsupportus.*

在不定式之前例如：Hedoesn’tknowwhethertostayornot.*

从句中有ornot时例如：Hedoesn’tknowwhetherheshouldstayornot.7.—Whendidyourbrotherbegintoshowhisinterestinmedicine.—ItwasaSaturday_____henoticedhisclassmateexperimentingonafroginthelab.A.that
