请问A错在那里 A至少应该在growth后加个of

11. A recent study has found that within the past few years, many doctors had elected early retirement rather than face the threats of lawsuits and the rising costs of malpractice insurance.

(A) had elected early retirement rather than face

(B) had elected early retirement instead of facing

(D) have elected to retire early rather than facing（E）

(E) have elected to retire early rather than face

答案是E。可是face前面应该加to才对称啊。face前不加to不会引起歧义，所以to就没有必要了

16. According to a recent poll, owning and living in a freestanding house on its own land is still a goal of a majority of young adults, like that of earlier generations.

(A) like that of earlier generations

(B) as that for earlier generations

(D) as have earlier generations（E）

(E) as it was of earlier generations

请问A错在那里 that指代不清楚，而且把A的that替换一下，应该会发现句子不通；另：这道题可以查阅以前的帖子，有过很多讨论。

谢谢
