1. Inuits of the Bering Sea were in isolation from contact with Europeans longer than Aleuts or Inuits of the North Pacific and northern Alaska.
(A) in isolation from contact with Europeans longer than
(B) isolated from contact with Europeans longer than
(C) in isolation from contact with Europeans longer than were
(D) isolated from contact with Europeans longer than were(D)
(E) in isolation and without contacts with Europeans longer than
为什么加上were, 有人解释说:主要前面有Europeans,省了were就会产生歧义:than后的Aleuts or Inuits 跟前面Inuits和Europeans哪个比。 谁能在给我讲讲啊 谢谢! 最好能翻译一下子 感激!

很简单啊,加了were就知道是和主语做比较,不加就可以能是与Europeans做比较。
同问:如果要跟前面的平行,是不是这样说更好?
Inuits of the Bering Sea were isolated from contact with Europeans longer than were Aleuts or Inuits of the North Pacific and northern Alaska were.
而D项中把were的位置提前到其主语之前,为什么要这样倒装呢?
很惭愧地再问一下, 这句话的意思究竟是不是:
The Bering Sea Inuits were isolated from Europeans longer than Aleuts or Inuits of the North Pacific and northern Alaska were isolated from Europeans.
如果我想要表达: The Bering Sea Inuits were isolated from Europeans longer than they were isolated from Aleuts or Inuits of the North Pacific and northern Alaska. 那么可以进行何种程度的省略呢?
我可不可以這樣解釋:
个人意见:
BS的I被孤立起來不跟E接觸比NP和NA的A或I要長很多。所以省略的是NP和NA的A或I(被孤立起來不跟E接觸),那麽加了個were可能就能表示出省略的部分.
探讨一下~ 有错误请指出!谢谢!
