幾年前補習做的筆記是 選項B倒數第四個is要去掉 但是個人以為 再將選項B還原後 得到如下 The ratio of salaries of m to o is substantially lower in Japan than the comparable ratio is in the United States. 似乎更能兼顧平衡及清楚 也就是說 我認為is是不能去掉的 想請問各位大大意見 謝謝
此题是简单的系表结构,无主谓宾结构,所以than后省略不会造成混淆,另外B,D中的区别还有salaries of managers, salaries of ordinary workers的对等关系问题,B中这种对等关系不对,所以选D, 但个人以为,如果D改成salaries of managers to those of ordinary workers会更好
