The reason  　　being late for the meeting was   　 his little son fell ill this morning.

A．for, that

B．why, that

C．for, because

D．why, because

答案

A

解析

试题分析：考查介词用法和表语从句，the reason与介词for连用，for后面接动名词的形式。第二空是由that引导的表语从句，句意：他会议迟到的原因是他的小儿子今天上午突然生病了。故A正确。注意没有The reason is because…的句式。
点评：The reason只能与because连用，形成表语从句。要注意名词性从句的引导词的使用，连接词that, whether, if在句中不充当任何成分，只起连接作用；连接代词who(ever), which(ever), whom(ever),whose(ever),what(ever)在句中做主语，宾语，表语和定语；连接副词when, why, where, how，在句中做状语。应从上下句的句法关系着手分析。
