A比较对象错误，干掉。扫一眼B，比A强一点，先留着。看C，一气呵成，尤其是那个the ratio是精华，一看就品相不错。再看D,一看到who，干掉，意思不对。最后扫一眼E，很awkward,干掉。 最后BC比较，前半部分一样，说明是好的表达方式，看后部。B的42 times in 1980意思不对，最后选了C。作者: njit2007 时间: 2010-1-30 19:38
A答案里面的compared to a ratio of 42 times 语法上是不是和 blue-collar workers进行比较了，所以错啊 同时A答案里面得42 Time In 1981也不对 B答案里面的42 Times In 1981不对 D答案里少关系词That,Who多余，而且419 times more pay...than....是有歧义的表达方式 E答案里上关系词thay，42 times in 1981不对，而且earning 也不对 但是C答案里面的as compared to 42 times their pay作状语吗？修饰谁呢？作者: heslington 时间: 2010-3-10 00:51
