标题: gwd 8-41

When drive-ins were at the height of their popularity in the late 1950’s, some 4,000 existed in the United States, but today there are less than one-quarter that many.

A. there are less than one-quarter that many

B. there are fewer than one-quarter as many

C. there are fewer than one-quarter of that amount

D. the number is less than one-quarter the amount

E. it is less than one-quarter of that amount

请原谅另立新贴，原有的帖子都是和别的问题一起问的，太乱看的难受，而且没有人讨论D

C感觉是可以的，但是不是太罗嗦了

D项有什么问题吗？哪位请给解释一下

"the number is less than one-quarter the amount"

好象没有这么表术的吧, 我觉得问题在1) NUMBER 对 one quarter, 2) 省了OF.

个人意见

同意楼上的观点。语法中不能把具体数字和百分比对应，并且one quarter of the amount 才对

D的问题在less than上,这是可数的,只能用fewer.

感谢楼上各位！

4楼的意思“the number is fewer than”？好像不大对啊，有点晕，哪位给证实一下

我认为 B 是对的.

A. less than 错

C. one quater of that amount ( 4000 drive-ins) 是错的. amount 应对的是 money, water

B. one-quarter as many

老美就是这么说的. (google 上可搜到)

恩，我也觉得不太对，number is less than比fewer than的用法要多见吧

这个题刚刚在Prep上做过，奇怪破解版又找不到原题。

Prep的官方答案是B！大家看看，one quarter as many，有这样的说法？

作者: raisinzz 时间: 2009-2-1 23:55

B中as many结尾是对的，

引用LDCE：

as many
a number that is equal to another number
They say the people of Los Angeles speak 12 languages and teach just as many （in the schools）.
