Hello,
A "that" relative pronoun is used in the non-defining relative clause of the sentence of this Question 4. According to Author Alan Townend, "that" cannot be used in a non-defining relative clause (ESL Lesson: Relative Pronoun--Particular--
http://www.english-test.net/lessons/21/index.html
So, why does this Question 4 contradict Author Alan Townend's note?
Thank you.
Best wishes,
