105. An inventory equal to 90 days sales is as much as even the strongest businesses
carry, and then only as a way to anticipate higher prices or ensure against shortages.
(A) as much as even
(B) so much as even
(C) even so much as
(D) even as much that
(E) even so much that
问题：
1 既然大家都认为inventory是不可数名词。为什么前面可以加上an？
2，AND THEN和前面的什么平行，省略的是什么？？
3 the strongest businesses 为什么 businesses 是复数？？？
4 as much as 因为much 是名词，所以后面的carry是不是也应该是名词呢，为什么大家都说是动词？？
我认为是名词，后面省略了IS，补上应该是：An inventory equal to 90 days sales is as much as even the strongest businesses carry is
business有的时候是可数的
1.A specific occupation or pursuit:
2.A commercial enterprise or establishment:
我觉得这里是2的含义，当然是可数的了。意思是等于90天销售量的库存差不多等于最强劲的公司支持/支撑的了。这里的carry当然是动词。
有些词能够理解意思，但是很难找到确切的中文翻译。一点愚见，欢迎指正。

1. I think inventory is a coutable noun. I don't know why other people think it is a mass noun.
2. and then parallels with the main clause, what omitted is "the inventory is".
3. business is also a countable noun, both businesses and business are okay here.
4. carry is a verb here. What is being compared is "inventory", the complete sentence is "An inventory equal to 90 days sales is as much as (the inventory) even the strongest businesses carry"
先谢一下。有人回答真高兴。
antonio_zhu：表示同意。
madben：这个你错了。
1. I think inventory is a coutable noun. I don't know why other people think it is a mass noun
我认为是不可数的，因为后面用了as much as ，要是可数的话用的就是as many as
把问题贴一下，再接着问这个。

Inventory 作为库存的意思讲，本身是可数名词. 用as much as 是指库存里的东西因为不确定，所以不可数. 举个例子: A tablespoon (of water) is as much as three teaspoons.

还是不明白，既是不可数，为何前面加了AN？？？
等着大家答，一定要真的搞明白。
as much as有2种含义
1,像...什么一样多
(这是我们常见的)
2,as much as----almost几乎
e.g.He as much as admitted that it was his fault
挺佩服你的钻研精神,呵呵
这个解释小蚂蚁应该接受吧
谢谢盈儿，
不同意见：：我觉得要是像什么一样多，为什么不用
as many as 呢？？
我可以比较确定这句话里面as much as=almost(不怕被拍,呵呵)
OG的解释中,so much as与as much as不同在于前者用在否定句中
so much as is considered idiomatic if it is preceded by a negative, as in "She left not so much as a trace."
她几乎没留下痕迹
从这里我们可以看出原句子里as much as=almost
谢谢 盈儿，我要想想再看看是不是对的。喜欢你的例句呢。。
"She left not so much as a trace."
她几乎没留下痕迹
看来盈儿芳踪难觅，冲哥哥凭添叹息。
：）
鸟儿飞过，留下空气划过的痕迹，
浪花卷过，飘来大海荡起的笑意。
蚂蚁爬过，贪恋大地清洌的情思。
盈儿路过，散落午夜回旋的香气。
人生起伏，定格今夏ＣＤ的记忆。

哇,原来蚂蚁还是位诗人呢,佩服佩服
即兴之作,如此雅致,可见蚂蚁国学功力深厚啊~
可是OG上面的解释：the sentence depends on the correct use of the idiom as mush as to indicate comparison. 所以看样子在这里不作‘几乎，差不多’呀？
赫赫，打搅大家的诗兴了~
1.
I think inventory is a coutable noun. I don't know why other people
think it is a mass noun. Inventory 作为库存的意思讲，本身是可数名词. 用as much as
是指库存里的东西因为不确定，所以不可数. 举个例子: A tablespoon (of water) is as much as three
teaspoons.
2. and then parallels with the main clause, what omitted is "the inventory is".
3. business is also a countable noun, both businesses and business are okay here.
4. carry is a verb here. What is being compared is "inventory", the complete sentence is "An inventory equal to 90 days sales is as much as (the inventory) even the strongest businesses carry"
因为所有的选项都是as much as所以才不会导致选错，那么如果有as many as，又该如何呢？
可不可以这样理解，全句是从逻辑上来讲存货的问题，an inventory 是一次的存货，因为存货定期清查一次，所以可以认为这一次的存货，而后面的much指的是具体的存货，未知是什么所以用不可数much.
