A study on couples' retirement transitions found that women who took new jobs after retiring from
their primary careers reported high marital satisfaction, more than when retiring completely.
(A) more than when retiring
(B) more than if they were to retire
(C) more so than those who retired
(D) which was more so than those retiring
(E) which was more than if they had retired
句子结构：study found that… women… reported high marital satisfaction, more so than those…
主语是study，谓语是found，后跟that引导的宾语从句说明found的内容。
比较，相同比较对象对比，第二个名词由相应的代词指代，要注意单复数形式。
逻辑表达-维持原句意思，比较结构中的代词指代对象要注意是否符合逻辑意思，并且是否表达了原
平行-定语从句，在比较句子中比较对象的修饰成分最好用相同的表达方式，以使句子更加平行对称。
(A)缺少指代women的代词，致使more than的比较对象不对等，satisfaction与when retiring对比。
(B) they指代前面的women，表达意思错误，因为if they were to retire表达了同一群妇女不同情况下
的satisfaction对比，改变了原句意思，原句要表达的是不同妇女不同情况下的satisfaction对比；more
(C)正确，those指代women，who took和who retired平行。
(D) which与so代reported high marital satisfaction
(E) they指代前面的women，表达意思错误，与A选项相同；没有特殊的时间标志说明需要用过去完
It is used in making a "more than" type of comparison where you also want to refer to a previously stated verb / action (that's where the "so" comes in). In this case, the "so" refers to "reported high marital satisfaction."
Notice here that you are comparing two groups of women: those who take new jobs, and those who retire completely. When making a comparison, you have to make sure you explicitly mention both groups.
B, C, and D don't do this. (In fact, B and D change the original meaning of the sentence to make the second part of the comparison a hypothetical - but the original meaning is that the ones who take new jobs are being compared to those who don't.)
Also remember that, for comparisons, they two things / groups / whatever compared should be parallel. "women who took" and "those who retired" are parallel. The other options aren't.
the rule i like to use here is this: if it's not a specific NOUN that can be replaced by a PRONOUN (usually "it"), then use the all-purpose replacement "...so".
perhaps the most common usage in which you'll see this is "do it" vs. "do so":
wrong: i've always wanted to jump out of a plane, but i've never had the chance to do it. --> this is wrong because the only possible antecedent for "it" is plane, and it doesn't make any sense to talk about "doing" a plane.
correct: i've always wanted to jump out of a plane, but i've never had the chance to do so. --> "do so" = jump out of a plane.
you would extend this same type of extra freedom to "more so": if the comparison isn't quite parallel, and/or is ambiguous, without the "so", then go ahead and toss it in there; it doesn't have to have a single-word antecedent
这道题里 SO是复指 而后面那段英文解释意思是说IT是单指 可是在OG上有道 OWNING AND LIVING IN A FREE STANDING HOUSE 里AS IT IS OF 。。。。IT是复指那到底哪个是单指那个是复制还有THAT THOSE是单指对吗
还有就是WHICH 是单指还是复指啊 |
