一些拙见，大家一起讨论
首先，关于比较结构 as...as和more than的常见的一个考点是混用，如A

times可以和more than一起用，比如说four times more= five/six... times（就是比4倍大的意思）
four times as likely as= 4倍
对于以上两点的区别，我们有时不能很好的判断原句到底是想说4倍还是大于4倍（本题我是遵循原题干意思大于4倍而迅速排出as的，不过有可能存在例外，但一般情况下选项A即为原语义）
其实对于B和E项，不考虑语义错误的情况下，另一个明显的错误是不平行

more likly to do这个楼主可以作为idiom来记忆
