标题: og12-96: not so much..as..一定必要吗？
og12-96

one of the primary distinctions between our intelligence with that of other primates may lay not so much in any specific skill but in our ability to extend knowledge gained in one context to new and different ones.

a. between our intelligence with that of other primates may lay not so much in any specific skill but

b. between our intelligence with that of other primates may lie not so much in any specific skills but instead

c. between our intelligence and that of other primates may lie not so much in any specific skill as

d. our intelligence has from that of other primates may lie not in any specific skill as

e. of our intelligence to that of other primates may lay not in any specific skill but

答案C没有问题，可以通过between..and..固定用法排除错误选项，当时选的时候也没有太注意正确句子中的not so much..as..的出现。
后来回头看og的解释，对于d选项中没有not so much..而只出现了as是这样说的：without so much,which is used in C，as seems to introduce a comparison for specific skill rather than a distinction. 想不明白这句话，为什么不用so much就会成了specific skill得比较不是distinction得比较呢？

请nn指教~~！谢谢~~！

我在想，如果把d改成其他部分都和c一模一样，只不过没有so much，也就是：between our intelligence and that of other primates may lie not in any specific skill as
那可以选d吗？

我想这就是就近修饰吧
lie not so much in any specific skill as 中not so much 靠近lie，所以修饰lie，lie的动作发出者是distinctions

in any specific skill as中as靠近skill 所以修饰skill

我想是这样吧，本来句子比较结构是 as...as...然后因为否定了就not so....as...，但D选项没有比较结构出现和原意不太一样了，出题本意是要有这个比较结构的吧

句子意思理解，
C, distinctions(....) may lie not so much in any specific skill as in our ability AAA和BBB的区别与其说是AAA还不如说是BBB 明确指出差别是BBB
D，distinctions（.....)may lie not in any specific skill as in our ability to..... AAA与BBB的区别不是specific skill 而是像our ablity to.... 这样更想比较，而不是说出他们的差别

谢谢各位nn的解释。觉得as...as..的比较结构的说法似乎比较好理解。

如果像LZ那样改的话，D的否定形式也不不完整，应该是doesn't lie in any specific skill as in in our ability to...这个时候正如OG12解释的，“as seems to introduce a comparison for speci? c skill rather than a distinction.”意思变成了，“区别不在于 in any specific skill 正如不在于in our ability ...”，所以自然错了。

另外补充主要语法点如下共参考：

not so much A as B: 与其A不如B
not so much as...: 连…都不肯;甚至不,甚至于没有
much as = although

这个解释真好，终于理解到了OG对D的解释了，谢谢

嗯那嗯呐，改变句意的说

同6楼，哈哈刚在曼哈顿上看到了这个固定搭配
not so much.....as

还想追问下，如果not so much...as是个固定搭配的话那ABE中将as变成了but,instead是不是错了吖？ OG上没有提
