标题: 倍数+ as likely as 与倍数+ more likely than的区别
38.According to a recent study, the elderly in the United States are four times more likely to give regular financial aid to their children as to receive it from them.
(A) the elderly in the United States are four times more likely to give regular financial aid to their children as
(B) the elderly in the United States are four times as likely to give regular financial aid to their children as it is for them
(C) the elderly in the United States are four times more likely to give regular financial aid to their children than
(D) it is four times more likely for the elderly in the United States to give regular financial aid to their children than they are
(E) it is four times as likely that the elderly in the United States will give their children regular financial aid as they are
the key:C。
比较考点: 倍数+more likelly to do------+than to do
42.According to a survey of graduating medical students conducted by the Association of American Medical Colleges, minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than are other graduates in planning to practice in socioeconomically deprived areas.
(A) minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than are other graduates in planning to practice
(B) minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than other graduates who plan on practicing
(C) minority graduates are nearly four times as likely as other graduates to plan on practicing
(D) it is nearly four times more likely that minority graduates rather than other graduates will plan to practice
(E) it is nearly four times as likely for minority graduates than other graduates to plan to practice
the key: C
比较考点：倍数+as +adj./adv.+as

大全里面的两道比较题, 42中A为什么不对啊. Than后面的are不正是主语比较的谓语补出么?

感觉 42题a选项里的in 多余。

我觉得42题中A把than 后面的倒装改过来后就是

minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than other graduates are in planning to practice in socioeconomically deprived areas.

是不是应该把"in planning to practice in socioeconomically deprived areas."挪到than前面就对了?

还有一个问题, "four times more likely than" 和 "four times as likely as" 相比有什么区别呢? 是不是前者表示多4倍也就是说5倍,后者是说相当于四倍. 如果两者意思补一致的话C补就改变了原句的意思了么?

哪位同学出来解释一下啊,晕死了...

弱弱地问一句噢，你们B都是怎么排除掉的啊？

作者: 小姜 时间: 2007-8-5 11:58

38题B中their children, their指代the elderly,而非画线部分receive it from them, them 指代 children 导致指代清,

而且 as it is for them....又别扭又罗唆

42题中"to plan on practicing"是 minority graduates和other graduates 都要做的事情,而B中 who...修饰other garduates,这样子的话,minority graduate就没啥可作了吧, 不合逻辑.

我也有同样的疑问。

类似的例子如gwd1-7

A recent review of pay scales indicates that CEO’s now earn an average of 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, compared to a ratio of 42 times in 1980.

that CEO’s now earn an average of 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, compared to a ratio of 42 times
that, on average, CEO’s now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, a ratio that compares to 42 times
that, on average, CEO’s now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, as compared to 42 times their pay, the ratio
CEO’s who now earn on average 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, as compared to 42 times their pay, the ratio
CEO’s now earning an average of 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, compared to the ratio of 42 times

这里原题里说是419 times more pay,,答案b里却是419 times the pay..意思根本不同啊

翻出来再请问：

four times more likely than 和 four times as likely as 到底有区别吗？

four times more likely to do A than to do B
four times as likely to do A as to do B

同问。。。

作者: zilong728 时间: 2009-10-15 12:25

four times more likely than 和 four times as likely as

大家请注意后面那种说法是不存在的 times as 是不能在一起搭配的是一个diction错误

times + than才行所以B被排除

作者: vivianddjd 时间: 2020-10-18 20:27
A be four times more likely to do C than B
A be four times as likely as B to do C
这两个应该都可以的
