The number of times (that)a cycle repeats itself within a period of time is its frequency.
【翻译】一个周期在一段时间内重复的次数就是其频率。
英语中,表示时间以及次数的 time,作先行词时,后面的关系副词一般用 that,可以省略。
【注】本句中的 times 指“次数”(频度),不是“时间”。次数可数,时间不可数。(黎老师的例句是时间的,不是次数,与本句不同)
以下两句都是次数。例如:
This table will hold a word and the number of times (that)the word has occurred.
这张表将保存单词及单词已经出现的次数。
It is the first time (that)I have spoken to a foreigner.
这是我首次和一位外国人交谈。

划线部分是定语从句,that 是关系副词,可以省略。如:
He worked the whole time (that) he lived there. 他住在那儿的整个时间都在工作。(摘自《薄冰英语惯用法词典》p.1135)
