P206,40题: Last year,land values in most parts of the pinelands rose and almost so fast, and in some parts even faster than what they did outside the pinelands.
D.as fast as, and in some parts even fasterthan, those E.as fast as, and in some parts even fasterthan what they did
正确选项D:as fast as, and in some parts even faster than, those
我想了一下,大概是因为在第二题中what it was=the rate of increase was,其中what it was表示过去某一时间某一事物的状态。 第一题中想要比较的则是动作rose,比较结构前已经有完整的主谓宾结构,不补出动词(且不补出无歧义),而what they did是一个带有动词补出的表达。
