5. its return in 1910-1911

ans:A

这题我选D,请教各位大大们,这题D为何不好咧???

A do …such as…..B do,把did放在后面不是也很平行为何选A???

我想知道~在舍么情况下会舍
   Of 1910-1911
   选in 1910-1911 ????
年是要用In 但下面找到的例子又困扰我????

eg (http://cometography.com/pcomets/001p.html)
Following the return of 1758-1759, astronomers began trying to link Halley's comet to comets seen prior to the 1531 appearance.

This sentence makes a comparison between "in other historical sighting " and "in 1910-1911".  It compares Halley’s comet 's return in other time with  its return in 1910-1911, and does not mean to compare Halley’s comet 's return with other historical sighting .

这题我选了E，想问为什么A的助动词did不能省略呢？

麻烦NN解答

解释的好, 另外:

In no other historical sighting did Halley’s comet cause such a worldwide sensation as did its return in 1910-1911.    是不是也平行呢?
