之前看到有总结说同位语从句中的that是不可省略的,但是发现prep2007中有一题与之矛盾,如下

98.  A decade after initiating the nation's most comprehensive and aggressive antismoking program, per
apita consumption of cigarettes in California declined from over 125 packs annually per person to
about 60, a drop more than twice as great as
in the nation as a whole.

正确选项
(D)California has seen per capita consumption of cigarettes decline from over 125 packs annually
to about 60, a drop more than twice as great as that

解释:D正确, California作为initiating的逻辑主语,符合逻辑; a drop…结构符合同位语构成; that代替a
drop使得比较双方对等

疑惑:如果a drop...是一个同位语从句,那么它是省略了that吗??
          如果a drop...不是同位语从句,仅仅是作为一个同位语,那不是更加不合理了吗?名词性同位语是用一个名词解释前文中的一个名词,但是这前面没有名词可以用drop来解释呀~~
纠结中,求解~~

more than不能作同位语,但能作定语/状语。

以prep1-98为例:正确答案D为:

A decade after initiating the nation's most comprehensive and aggressive antismoking program,  California has seen per capita consumption of cigarettes decline from over 125 packs annually to about 60, a drop more than twice as great as that in the nation as a whole.

如果D省去a drop,more than短语可以在句末作状语修饰主句动词seen,逻辑不对。more than也可看作省略了which is的非限制性定语修饰前面的名词60,同样逻辑不通。

为了清楚地跳跃修饰60前面的名词decline,我们必须将定语改为同位语结构:a drop more than。drop非常有针对性地指代decline这个过程而不会产生修饰60的歧义,既符合语法规则又符合逻辑。
