OG199. 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 (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
我的问题是如果A选项改成of a given magnitude typically devastates an area 100 times greater in the eastern United States than will a quake of comparable magnitude occurring in the West是否对不对。OG解释没有说具体对不对。我个人看法是in the eastern United States的修饰位置不对,应向正确选项D一样,跟在an earthquake后。greater than是不是应尽可能挨在一起?不知高人有何高见。
