A recent review of pay scales indicates that CEO's now earn an average of 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, compared to a ratio of 42 times in 1980.

(A) that CEO's now earn an average of 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, compared to a ratio of 42 times

(B) that, on average, CEO's now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, a ratio that compares to 42 times

(C) that, on average, CEO's now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, as compared to 42 times their pay, the ratio

(D) CEO's who now earn on average 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, as compared to 42 times their pay, the ratio

(E) CEO's now earning an average of 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, compared to the ratio of 42 times

这些选项的indicate that 后面怎么都不是一句完整的话呢？？？？

LZ可能看太快, 沒注意到CEO's是CEO的plural form, earn是謂語

那个不是CEO的？？复数不应该是CEOs？？

还有 compared to 不是比作吗？ compared with 才是与……比较？？

no....the plural form of CEO should be CEO's not CEOs.
GMAC不考apostrophes form plural forms的用法...如果LZ有興趣可以看看一些grammar book....超多exceptions...

compared to跟compared with的區別在SC中並不明顯....**個人**覺得在GMAC眼中沒有區別...(可是很多usage書上都有說它們的區別, 可是不一致...)

同问，，，为什么是CEO's~~~

网句子结构
A recent review… indicates that…, CEO'S earn…, as compared to… 主语是review，谓语是indicates，后跟that引导的宾语从句说明indicate的内容，宾语从句的主语是 CEO's，谓语是earn，宾语是419 times the pay of blue-collar workers，后跟比较结构as compared to…，the ratio是42 times their pay的同位语。 CEO's 是 CEO 的复数形式，以缩写字母组成的专有名词的复数形式可以是加's 或加 s。
考点：比较、句子结构
比较-compare/contrast 的用法，(as) compared to/with（GMAT 没有区分 to 和 with 的区别），省略了主语和系动词，即 A be compared with/to B，与 in contrast to 都是惯用法，前后比较对象一定要对等。
常见的错误用法有：将 compare 用作主动(when compare…; comparing…)，比较对象不对等。句子结构-宾语从句，正式书面语中，宾语从句的引导词 that 不能省略。
选项分析
(A) compared to的比较对象不对象，前者419 times the pay of blue-collar workers表达的是工资数，而后者a ratio of是比率。
(B) a ratio that compares的compare不能用主动方式表达，应该是被比较sth be compared to…的省略形式（省略了主语和系动词，是惯用法）；compare to的比较对象不对象，前者419 times the pay of blue-collar workers表达的是工资数，而后者42 times是比率。
(C) 正确，as compared to比较结构，419 times the pay与42 times their pay比较，the ratio…是同位语。
(D) 缺少that引导宾语从句；indicates CEO's who…句子结构不完整，缺少谓语，who引导定语从句修饰名词CEO's。
(E) 缺少that引导宾语从句；indicates CEO's earning…句子结构不完整，缺少谓语；compare to的比较对象不对象，前者419 times the pay of blue-collar workers表达的是工资数，而后者42 times是比率。

网上看到的，分析的不错，我把它摘了过来
