请问, 为什么你举的例子里头,不像原题所给的答案那样用“there is”而是采用“there are ”呢?原题正确选项中可以把 “there were”改成“there was”吗?
第二题:there are now one microcomputer for every thirty-two pupils, four times as many than there were four years ago. (1) as many than 是错误的, 只能是as many as, 或者more ....than (2) 因为比较是过去和现在,时态发生了变化,因此主语和谓语需要重复一下,there were不能少,后面省略的是microcomputers. 如果是统一时态,则是可以省略的,比如 there are now one microcomputer for every thirty-two pupils in China, four times as many as in Korea. 一点愚见,也欢迎大家讨论指点 -- by 会员 mudiduange (2011/6/15 13:01:25)
