还是OG199-D,请教其倒装和省略

Because the Earth's crust is more solid there and thus better able to transmit shock waves, an earthquake
of a given magnitude typically devastates an area 100 times greater in the eastern United States than it
does in the West.
(A) of a given magnitude typically devastates an area 100 times greater in the eastern United States than it
does in the West
(B) of a given magnitude will typically devastate 100 times the area if it occurs in the eastern United States
instead of the West
(C) will typically devastate 100 times the area in the eastern United States than one of comparable
magnitude occurring in the West

(D) in the eastern United States will typically devastate an area 100 times greater than will a quake of
comparable magnitude occurring in the West(D)
(E) that occurs in the eastern United States will typically devastate 100 times more area than if it occurred
with comparable magnitude in the West

比较中省略的原则之一:

主句含有助动词的谓语动词短语(will devastate),其从句应该省略实义动词(devastate)保留助动词(will).

OG中应该有很多类似例子.

不是NN.
