91. Like many self-taught artists, Perle Hessing did not begin to paint until she was well into middle age.
(A) Like
(B) As have
(C) Just as with
(D) Just like
(E) As did
Choice A, the best answer, is concise and grammatically correct, using the comparative preposition like to express the comparison between many self-taught artists and Perle Hessing. Choices B and E, which replace A's prepositional phrase with clauses introduced by as, use auxiliary verbs that cannot properly be completed by any part of the verb phrase in the main clause: neither have ... did not begin nor did... did not begin is logically or grammatically sound. In C and D, Just as with and Just like are both unnecessarily wordy.
这里只看E选项,如果不从意思是否正确,只是从纯语法角度来看的话,我认为E的选项是符合语法要求的。在OG中有一题正确选项是这样的:
Because young children do not organize their attention or perceptions systematically, as adults do, they may notice and remember details that their elders ignore.
这里的do同样不能代替前面的do not,但是因为后面的要表达一个相反的意思,所以要补上do。我总结,认为:like是表示相同,而as是可以表示相同和不同。
所以我不明白为什么说OG上认为E的结构不是grammatically sound呢?
