2 是否than前后都应该是有主谓的句子，后者至少是有省略的句子。

    我觉得有时补出，有时不补出谓语，也就是有时省略了，你说的有道理！但是一定要注意没有歧义！

以下是引用bob在2003-3-15 18:16:00的发言：

3. From 1982 to 1987 sales of new small boats increased between five and ten percent annually.
A. From 1982 to 1987 sales of new small boats increased between five and ten percent annually.
B. Five to ten percent is the annual increase in sales of new small boats in the years 1982 to 1987.
C. Sales of new small boats have increased annually five and ten percent in the years 1982 to 1987.
D. Annually an increase of five to ten percent has occurred between 1982 and 1987 in the sales of new small boats.
E. Occurring from 1982 to 1987 was an annual increase of five and ten percent in the sales of new small boats.
我的问题是，E如果改为Occurring from 1982 to 1987 was an annual increase of five to ten percent in the sales of new small boats.或者改为Occurring from 1982 to 1987 was an annual increase of five percent in the sales of new small boats.，不考虑逻辑是否成立，单纯从语法角度上来讲，这种表达在英语中是否成立，即这种倒装是否是英语语法允许的？谢谢。

我觉得这种表达很别扭，倒装我还没有看到这样的形式。个人意见，还望大家来指点~
