A. was until; when B. was until; that C. wasn’t until; when D. wasn’t until; that答案为D。此题考查not…until…句式的强调形式――It was not until…that…的用法。注意不要想当然地将其中的that换成when。(2) It was not until she got home _______ Jennifer realized she had lost her keys. A. when B. that C. where D. before答案为B。考查not…until…的强调形式，其基本结构为it was not until….that…形式。
