我也觉得选C~答案是A吗？其实我觉得GWD很多题目的答案都是众说风云的~作者: gracezz 时间: 2010-5-3 15:47
谢谢楼上的回复，我用的是GWD31的版本，答案就是A，但是我觉得C对。。。刚模了一套就有俩答案和以前的讨论贴不一样。。。。作者: luyiqing 时间: 2010-5-3 21:11
我觉得选A， more likely than are other graduates in planning to practice倒过来还原就是than other graduates are （in planning）,而C缺少不出的助动词are，不好作者: Sharonluo33 时间: 2010-5-4 17:36

但是be likely to do something.呀，没有in doing something的说法呀作者: serenity049 时间: 2010-5-4 20:10
俺也觉得选C，冲着be likely to do sth.，OG里也反复提到这个idiom，且as的前后比较对象是对应的啊，没有歧义吧。作者: 福亲王 时间: 2010-7-21 20:13
我也选的C作者: vincentchui 时间: 2010-7-21 20:42
觉得是C A is X times more likely than B to do/in sth,显然to do比in sth好，所以A不够C好； X times more likely than=X times as likely as
