Đáp án A

Kiến thức về mệnh đề quan hệ

Ở đây ta cần một đại từ quan hệ thay thế cho danh từ chỉ người “many good female friends” được nhắc tới trước đó và làm tân ngữ.

Ta có cụm từ:

Contact with sb: liên lạc, giữ liên lạc với ai

Even though I did not find the love of my life while I was in the USA, I still made many good female

friends afterwards (5)_________I still remain contact. (Mặc dù tôi không tìm thấy tình yêu của đời mình khi còn ở Mỹ, nhưng tôi vẫn kết bạn với nhiều bạn nữ tốt sau đó, người mà tôi vẫn còn giữ liên lạc.)
