Question

It was not in the length of days, but in the use we make of them _______ the value of life lies.

A.when B.where C.that D.how

Answer

C

【解析】

考查强调句型。句意：生命的价值不在于能活多少天，而在于我们如何利用这些日子。分析句子结构，此处是强调句型it was …. that，强调句子的宾语“not in the length of days, but in the use we make of them”，其中有not… but…并列结构。此句子中，将It was和that去掉，可以还原成完整句子The value of life lies not in the length of days, but in the use we make of them。故选C项。
