标题: section 8-6
6 The number of undergraduate degrees in engineering awarded by colleges and universities in the United States increased by more than twice from 1978 to 1985
(C) more than doubled
(D) was more than doubled

這個題的答案是3不是4,

我想知道題幹如果使用3替換的話,那麽句子中的謂語是什麽,more than doubled再裏面又是什麽成分。

6.    The number of undergraduate degrees in engineering awarded by colleges and universities in the United States increased by more than twice from 1978 to 1985.
(A) increased by more than twice
(B) increased more than two times
(C) more than doubled
(D) was more than doubled
(E) had more than doubled

from the dictionary:

Double: v: to become twice as much or as many, or to make sth twice as big.  So here the meaning is "to become twice as many". I think it is the reason we choose c. 是主动的不是被动的.  我觉得:
A: increase by 后头要加具体的数字: increase by 2%
D: 没有主动的力辆.

C: more than 是修饰double, 是副次作用.

也不知道对不对, 还请班主指正

1, 2 times=double; 3 times=triple; 4 times=quadruple
2, passive voice is needed

句子的谓语就是doubled.
