The five hundred largest manufacturing firms in the United States produce goods that are worth almost as much as that of the four hundred thousand firms that remain.

(A) that are worth almost as much as that of the four hundred thousand firms that remain

(B) of a worth that is almost as much as that of the four hundred thousand firms that remain

(C) almost as much in worth as those of the remaining four hundred thousand firms

(D) almost as much in worth as that of the remaining four hundred thousand firms（E）

(E) worth almost as much as those of the remaining four hundred thousand firms

为什么选E呢？

本题考的代词指代：

that:指代前面提到过的单数名词；those:指代前面提到过的复数名词；

goods 是复数形式，因此 A，B，D中的that of  指代错误；

C中的 almost as much in worth 不如 (E) worth almost 来的简洁，因此选E
