OG90
Prices at the producer level are only 1.3 percent higher now than a year ago and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the south are hurting crops and therefore raised corn and soybean prices.

A: than a year ago and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the south are hurting crops and therefore raised
B: than those of a year ago, and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the south are hurting crops and therefore raising
C: than a year ago and are going down, despite floods in the Midwest and drought in the south, and are hurting crops and therefore raising
D: as those of a year ago and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the south hurt crops and therefore raise
E: as they were a year ago and are going down, despite floods in the Midwest and drought in the south, and are hurting crops and therefore raising

选项A，OG: The first part of this version of the sentence illogically compares prices to a time.

OG104
Heating-oil prices are expected to be higher this year than last because refiners are paying about $5 a barrel more for crude oil than they were last year.

(A) Heating-oil prices are expected to be higher this year than last because refiners are paying about $5 a barrel more for crude oil than they were
(B) Heating-oil prices are expected to rise higher this year over last because refiners pay about $5 a barrel for crude oil more than they did
(C) Expectations are for heating-oil prices to be higher this year than last year's because refiners are paying about $5 a barrel for crude oil more than they did
(d) It is the expectation that heating-oil prices will be higher for this year over last because refiners are paying about $5 a barrel more for crude oil now than what they were
(E) It is expected that heating-oil prices will rise higher this year than last year's because refiners pay about $5 a barrel for crude oil more than they did

选项A，OG:This sentence expresses the comparison in succint, parallel phrase.

在我看来这两题的第一部分比较情况应该是一样的，为什么第一题错，第二题对呢？求大神指导

我不是大神啦。首先第一题比较的是price而非时间，不是想要把now 和 last year进行比较。应该用those 指代prices 。而第二题是在比较时间。

而且and raising 是和前面hurting的并列

In the second question, "last" refers to "last year's heating oil price" not "last year". It is explicitly stated in OG's explanation. As I said, Ron could be WRONG.

不知道为什么第二题看出是比较时间。难道是因为 is expected to 吗

关于第一题，prices are higher than a year ago 和 prices are higher than those of a year ago都ok。OG解释有误，因为prices are higher than [prices] a year ago允许去掉 [prices]

A的问题是时态, Weather is hurting crops and therefore raised their prices是说气候正在干某件事，但因为正在干的这件事，crop prices在干这件事之前就发生了...

最重要的是...B没有硬伤，也没有瑕疵....
