标题: 补充材料上231、236、243题
补充材料上236题原句是这样的：

unlike other arachnids ,which have their nerve cells evenly distributed along their ((bodies,the scorpion's nerve cells are clustered in its head,like a mammals's)).

答案是 which have their nerve cells evenly distributed along their body(答案选body！！！)，我不明白为什么用body而不用bodies???

补充材料231
in the 1980's the rate of increase of the minority population of the US was nearly ((twice as fast as)) the 1970's.
b)twice as fast as it was in
c)twice what it was in
答案选c，请问为什么不选b??

补充材料243
Although the coordination of monetary policy can help facilitate the orderly financing of existing iimbalances,((it is unlikely that its effect on their size is significant))in the absence of an appropriate fiscal adjustment.

这有错吗？为什么答案改为its effect on their size is not likely to be significant.

谢谢

About question 2, I think:
"2(3,4 or other) times +as many(much) +as ", this usage is never right, and no logical meaning.

不明白楼上所说的，经常可以看见n+twice+as many as ....的用法，不是吗？

请大家多帮帮忙回答一下上面几个问题，多谢了！

如果用bodies 在语法上没错，但在逻辑上会产生歧义，改变句意，容易理解为nerve cells 被均分到各个身体上。

而their body的用法并不错误。

另如，有时我们可以说 their wife, 指他们的妻子，以避免their wives给人的“一夫多妻”的错觉。
