d.April Fool's Day is that special day of the year when you should play a joke on someone!

But remember, if you play a joke after 12 at noon, YOU are the April Fool!

b.Most education experts today stress the importance of "life-long learning”. They point out that education never ends. It is a continuous process. The day we stop learning is the day when we die.
（3）注意：表示時(shí)間的先行名詞，若定語(yǔ)從句不是缺狀語(yǔ)，而是缺少主語(yǔ)或賓語(yǔ)，要用which或that來(lái)引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句。因?yàn)橛脀hen來(lái)引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句的前提條件是when在其引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句中作時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)。
a.I'11 never forget the time which I spent on campus.
which作spent的賓語(yǔ)。
b.I'11 never forget the day when we first met in the park.
when作時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)，修飾met。
c.The hours_________the children spend in their one-way relationship with television people undoubtedly affect their relationships with real-life people.
A. when
B. on which
C. that
D. in which
正確答案：C。
分析：這句話的定語(yǔ)從句中的謂語(yǔ)spend缺賓語(yǔ)，因此填入的關(guān)系詞要充當(dāng)這一賓語(yǔ)，所以選C。
