What suprised me was not what he said but _____ he said it.

问题描述:

What suprised me was not what he said but _____ he said it.
A the way B in the way that C in the way D the way which
我觉得应是 the way in which ,郁闷

A
因为想选出的是Surprise me的东西,自然是个名词,因此先排除BC,
这时the way 后面加Which的时候表示,后面的句子缺成分,但是He said it 不差成分,因此排除.
