We realize that air does not contain the same elements that

  • that it contained years ago是定语从句,修饰先行词elements.

    contained是是主动语态的一般过去式形式,关系代词that作其宾语;

    it指air.

    先行词被the same修饰时,定语从句的关系代词可以用as也可以用that引导.但是意思有区别.

    例如:Your shirt is the same as mine.你的衬衫和我的一样.

    This is the same pen as I lost yesterday.这和我昨天丢失的笔是同一支.
