“8. We finally chose the coffee table towards the back of the store, which we thought would complement our living room furniture.

答案：8. we finally chose the coffee table towards the back of the store, because we thought that this table would complement our living room furniture.
解析：The original sentence is incorrect because the pronoun which refers to store. Store is an illogical antecedent for which, because the table, not the store, is what would complement someone's living room furniture.”

Can someone tells me why there's a word "that" in the sentence of "because we thought that this table"?
Thanks a lot! (in computer lab so I cannot type Chinese, sorry TT)

GMAT的语法点，好好看下曼哈顿语法，宾语从句的that是不能省略的，绝对不能省略,thoght后面引出的是宾语从句，自然that不能省略
