单选题 Advertising is distinguished from other forms of communication ______ the advertiser pays for the message to be delivered.

A. in that
B. in which
C. in order that
D. in the way

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】[考点] 考查原因状语从句。
in that引导原因状语，往往用于书面语，放在句中而不是句首，意为“因为，原因在于”；in which一般用来引导定语从句，修饰表示方位的名词；in order that常常用于引导目的状语从句；in the way意为“妨碍；在…方面；关于”。由此可知A为正确答案。
