The people at the party were worried about Janet because no one was aware ___ that she had gone.
A. of the place where
B. of where
C. where that
D. the place
Note:
I think unless the sentence were “no one was aware of the fact that” otherwise it somehow seems strange to me to have the “that” in the sentence “ But I can be wrong. Do you think it is correct to keep the “that” in the sentence?

I agree with you -- you don't need that for the other options.
If you choose A or B, the sentence is "...no one was aware of (the place) where she had gone."
C and D are both wrong anyway.

Okay, I changed my mind. Make it B. "Aware of where" seemed a bit strange to me at first, but it seems to be more idiomatic.
My final answer:
The people at the party were worried about Janet because no one was aware of where she had gone.

I googled this question and found it elsewhere, but it didn't have "that" after the space.
So the best answer would be A:
The people at the party were worried about Janet because no one was aware of the place where she had gone.

In American English, none of those choices are correct; so I'm assuming that this is a British English question from something like IELTS...?
In American English, the finished sentence would be:
The people at the party were worried about Janet because no one was aware OF THE PLACE that she had gone.
Hope this helps! :)
