标题: og12-sc-16 that of
16. Retail sales rose 0.8 of 1 percent in August, intensifying expectations that personal spending in the July-September quarter more than doubled that of the 1.4 percent growth rate in personal spending for the previous quarter.

(A) that personal spending in the July-September quarter more than doubled that of

(B) that personal spending in the July-September quarter would more than double

(C)ofpersonal spending in the July-September quarter, that it more than doubled

(D) of personal spending in the July-September quarter more than doubling that of

(E) of personal spending in the July-September quarter, that it would more than double that of

网上有解释:
This year's rate has doubled that of the last year's. - correct ---->不明白啊! that of 又用last year's 岂不重复?
This year's rate has doubled the 1.8 units rate of last year - correct
This year's rate has doubled that of the 1.8 units - incorrect. 1.8 units is the rate itself.
求大牛!

额,不明白LZ是有哪里有疑惑?

expectation that...that是作为expectation的同位语,解释这个抽象名词,expectation后面最好用将来时态,所以would比较好
double在这里是作为动词使用的, personal spending in the July-September quarter would more than double the 1.4 percent growth rate
more作为副词修饰double,是说7-9月的personal spending 是增长率1.4%的两倍

至于LZ贴的那个句子,双重所有格在GMAT中是一定错误的
This year's rate has doubled that of the last year's.  that指代rate,of所有格后面不应该再出现‘s了吧?
是不是LZ看的帖子有误?

谢谢Miazhang,我也觉得that of 后面有last year's重复了,错了。thanks!
