选项 A、which
B、where
C、that
D、when
答案B
解析 结构衔接题。该题位于条件状语从句If…中，分析该句子可以看出从句中主谓宾齐全，因此there is a telephone answering只能以从句的形式出现在该条件状语从句中。条件状语从句中的宾语是a home，很容易看出这里there is…应该是定语从句，修饰先行词home。根据语法规则可知，这里需要一个作状语的引导词，表示有录音电话的地点，因此正确选项是where。which引导定语从句时，在句中作主语或宾语，如：The river，which flows through London，is called the Thames. (这条流经伦敦的河叫泰晤士河)。该句中，where也可以用in which代替，起副词作用。that与 which类似，在定语从句中作主语或宾语，如：This is the best article that has been written on the subject．(这是有关这一主题的文章中最好的一篇)。when是关系副词，引导表示时间的定语从句。
