我尝试提出我的看法:
A large rise in the number of housingstarts in the coming year should boost new construction dollars by severalbillion dollars, making the construction industry’s economic health much morerobust than five years ago.
(A) making the construction industry’s economic health much more robust thanfive years ago
(B) and make the construction industry’s economic health much more robust thanfive years ago
(C) making the construction industry’s economic health much more robust than itwas five years ago
(D) to make the construction industry’s economic health much more robust thanfive years ago
(E) in making the construction industry’s economic health much more robust thanit as five years ago
Key: C
我不觉得用 in five years ago 就可以不补出it was. 首先 in five years ago 没有这样的用法吧。five years ago就是时间状语啊,不需要加一个in。
题中making the construction industry's economic health much more robust 比较的是形容词 robust 的程度,而不是making的宾语construction industry's economic health. 如果是,应该说成 making health more robust than making that five years ago. 用it was,比较的是宾语补足语robust。。
供讨论。
