why B?

B有歧义,可以表示为“提高了两次”也可以是“提高了两倍”

INCREASE同TWO TIMES是重复的,不能这样使用。个人观点。

I saw a good explaination in another website. hope that help!
OG 72 tests you Conciseness and Grammar.
Answee D and E are not correct grammar. "Double" is a "vt". so it sould not be used as " be doubled....When you see the phrase "from time to time", please use the "past tense". ex: He was a president of China from 1990 to 1995...
Answer A is correct because "by" is awkward. Twice is a adv and can't be as an object. Remember that only "Noun" can be an object.
Ex: He got rid of only.... (wrong)
Answer B: two times can be replaced by "twice. two times is too wordy.
Only C is concise and correct...

不说还好,越说越糊涂。
1. increase twice 可以成立吗?
2. increase by 后面除了具体number或percent,还有其他可能吗?

我同意上贴对Choice D, E and A 的解释。但是我个人认为,in Choice B two times 意思是增长了两次而不是原文的增长了两倍的意思,B错了是因为它改变的原文的意思与简洁无关。
