首先E答案中的it指代不清，what it was结构不明的 然后还改变的原意 题目的原意是non-Hispanic Whites 现在占加州人口的比例从原来的快四分三跌倒现在的不到一半 而E答案变成了从原来的多少降到了四分之三 down from……与down from ……by……的意思是不一样的作者: kudoucliff 时间: 2010-7-26 17:31

同意 LS的
down from 四分之三 现在是不到一半 这是 D 而E 是 从原来 的 降了四分之三 ，这搞得跟数学似地 ，比如 原来 是 12 现在时 3 降低了 9 ， 9是 12 的四分之三 这是 降低了 四分之三的 意思 是 E 的意思
