标题: 请教GMAT的一道语法题, 多谢多谢!

In his eagerness to find a city worthy of Priam, the German archaeologist Schliemann cut through Troy and uncovered a civilization a thousand years (older as was the city Homer's heroes knew.)

B. more ancient than the city known to Homer's heroes

C. older than was the city known to Homer's heroes

D. more ancient of a city than Homer's heroes knew

E. older of a city than was the one known to Homer's heroes

答案是 B, 请问C为什么不对, older than 不是更简洁么, 而且比较部分还补全了助动词.

呵呵，建议你先去版里看一下置顶的关于如何搜索的帖子，YZLINLIN写的

你要的这个题目解释在这里：http://forum.chasedream.com/dispbbs.asp?BoardID=23&ID=20292

另外：Ancient -- something old but disappeared, belonging to a time long ago in history, especially

thousands of years ago

Old -- something that is old has existed or been used for a long time

我觉得搜索还是有问题啊, 我就是按照帖子上的办法搜的, 我把斑竹给的网址上的标题复制了之后进行搜索,怎么还是找不到啊. 到底问题出在哪里呢?
