59. In 1978 only half the women granted child support by a court received the amount awarded; at least as much as a million and more others had not any support agreements whatsoever.
(A) at least as much as a million and more others had not any
(B) at least as much as more than a million others had no
(C) more than a million others had not any
(D) more than a million others had no
(E) there was at least a million or more others without any(主谓不一致，was错，而且这个表达也不爽)
D, the best choice, is idiomatic, clear, and concise. Both A and B incorrectly use much rather than many to describe the countable noun others; much should be used with uncountable nouns such as "joy" and "labor." Even if this error were corrected, though, A and B would still be wrong. Because man than x necessarily includes the sense of at least as many as x. it is redundant and confusing to use elements of both expressions to refer to the same number of women.
OG的解释跟我的理解刚好相反，我觉得AT LEAST 包括 MORE THAN 哪！！
我的理解跟你一样，有可能是ETS在这里表述有问题。可能的话你可以向ETS写信质疑。不过感觉more than有时意思不仅是多于,大于,也有=，如表倍数时(这时以前有网友提及的)。
