跪求斑斑 比较的省略

曼哈顿网站上有个人和你有 相同 的问题：也是关于这两道区别的 一摸一样
请戳 这里：

曼哈顿给的解释是：
you can't just write "42 times" by itself. it has to be 42 times something.
if it's 42 times something that was mentioned previously, or 42 times something that is in parallel structure to something that was mentioned previously, then you could use a relative pronoun (i.e., something like "42 times that in 1990", etc).

but you can't just leave "42 times" hanging out alone.

percentages, on the other hand, can be referenced by themselves (as long as context, somewhere else, clearly indicates what the percent is of).
for instance, you can say "80% of the X's are male, up from 67% five years ago". here, the second percentage is understood to be also "of the X's".

我觉得他说了跟不说一样，



发个水贴！！ 我是这么想的

B  选项 不是比较句 去掉 a ratio 就是 比较句 否则 不是比较句。。！！
个人认为没有突出比较 a ratio 做了 前一句话的同位语 关键是多了这个 a ratio 去掉的话 改为 as compared to 42 times  没有 their pay 我觉得也是对的


好吧 我承认不能回答你的问题。。版主呢 呼叫

个人写题思路，仅供参考。。。语意逻辑至上·
1.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主要还是比较概念不对等的问题。 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers与a ratio of 42 times工资数和比率比较不对
B.that, on average, CEO’s now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, a ratio that compares to 42 times， a ratio that compares to 42 times
这个我不是很确定，有的人说compare不能有主动态，而要用被动态，因为不是主动去比较。估计是对的吧。而且后面没划线的介词短语，我独来读去都有修饰compares的歧义。所以逻辑不合理。
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
这个比较概念就很对等了419 times the pay和42times their pay.



2.In California today, Hispanics under the age of eighteen account for more than 43%, compared with a decade ago, when it was about 35%.

A.In California today, Hispanics under the age of eighteen account for more than 43%, compared with a decade ago, when it was about 35%
B.Of the Californians under the age of eighteen, today more than 43% of them are Hispanic, compared with a decade ago, when it was about 35%.
C.Today, more than 43% of Californians under the age of eighteen are Hispanic, compared with about 35% decade ago.
这里不是省略么，compared with about 35% of Californians under the age of eighteen are Hispanic,所以指代很明确啊~~~
D.Today, compared to a decade ago, Californians who are Hispanics under the age of eighteen account for more than 43%, whereas it was about 35%.
E. Today, Hispanics under the age of eighteen in California
account for more than 43%, unlike a decade ago, when it was about 35%.

给你顶顶~
