标题: og diagnostic test39 more than likely的用法疑问

According to scholars, the earliest writing was probably not a direct rendering of
speech, but was more likely to begin as a separate and distinct symbolic system of
communication, and only later merged with spoken language.
(A) was more likely to begin as
(B) more than likely began as
(C) more than likely beginning from
(D) it was more than likely begun from
(E) it was more likely that it began

这道题答案选B，begin as 和这里was...began..merged的并列用法看懂了，但是被og上关于more than likely的解释逼疯了....

This sentence is a comparison in which probably not x is balanced by but more than likely y. When more is used in the comparative form of an adjective(more difficult) or adverb(more likely), it is followed by than.

求问大神们，这里的意思是指more than likely 作为副词修饰began吗？只要存在比较，more修饰adj/adv的时候后面都要跟than吗？

搜遍og全网好像都没看到很清晰的解释。。。跪求大神赐教~~

这题关键是This sentence is a comparison in which probably not x is balanced by but more than likely y
Probably not X , but more than likely Y
X 为n , y 为 v .. 迷惑了

当我看到not a ...我直接就在找but a/an .. 哈哈

后面的平行简单，一看就明白

你对上面的解释理解都对啊

分享一下我的思路
句子，and短语这种用法在gmat里面是错的排除DE
有比较级没有than 排除A
C的问题楼主已经明白了我就不赘述了
