16.Since the Airline Deregulation of 1978,major airline companies in the United States have cut their employee ranks by more than 3,000 person.Thus,although deregulated competition has consumers dramatically lower fares,the economy of the United States has been harmed by deregulation of the airlines.

a. a poll of people in the United States expressed exceptionally strong support for airline deregulation.

b.fewer passengers now travel on commercial airlines than traveled on them in 1978,with the consequence that fewer employees are needed to operate the airlines than were needed in 1978

c.airlines now fly a more restricted regular schedule of routes than they did in 1978,with the consequce that the industry is more highly concentrated and competitive than it was before 1978

我理解c项的意思大慨是:由于航公空公事更加精简和更加具有竞争力,现在航班比在1978年时可以飞更多的定期飞行路线

但答案的翻译是:现在的航班定期飞行路线比1978年更加少了.因此航空业比1978年以前更加集中了,竞争也理激烈了

简直与本人的理解相反! 如果按我的理解c选项做正确答案比较合适.但事实不是如此, 这是为什么?

d.serveral major airlines now enjoy significantly higher profits and levels of employement than they did in the years preceding the Deregulation Act

e.smaller carriers of passengers have thrived as a result of deregulation and now provide more new jobs than the major airlines have eliminated since 1978.

C选项，答案的翻译的对。你理解错了。more restricted是（飞行路线）更加受到限制。

答案选什么？D吗？

如果 more修饰后面的名词性短语的话,就不一样了
more +(restricted regular schedule of routes)

更多的+(受限制性的航班)-->更多的航班数
