请教大全317（关于比较）

1.        Freedman’s survey showed that people living in small towns and rural areas consider themselves no happier than do people living in big cities.

(A) no happier than do people living

(B) not any happier than do people living

(C) not any happier than do people who live

(D) no happier than are people who are living(A)

(E) not as happy as are people who live

对答案没疑问，但想知道，是否可以把原文改成
                Freedman’s survey showed that people living in small towns and rural areas less consider themselves happy than do people living in big cities.因为我觉得既然是比较consider这个动作，就应该比较在副词上，请指教

同问!如果是比较动作,应该用副词的比较级来表示比较的意思吧?

请高手解释.多谢!
