请教PRER 1 第36题

Thomas Eakins's powerful style and his choices of
subject--the advances in modern surgery, the discipline of sport, the strains
of individuals in tension with society or even with themselves--was as
disturbing to his own time as it is compelling for ours.

(A) was as
disturbing to his own time as it is

(B) were as
disturbing to his own time as they are

(C) has been as
disturbing in his own time as they are

(D) had been as
disturbing in his own time as it was

(E) have been
as disturbing in his own time as

答案是B，我觉得是E。解释中说该句中是句子和句子比较，如果是这样的话，更应该选E.请大家帮忙看看

【考点】
        主动词一致（Consistency）
        比较要同类(Comparison)、动词形式（Verb Form）
            

1) 主动词一致: 复合主词A and B的动词动词要用复数
            

2) 比较的对象要概念对等
            

(A) was和复合主词style and his choices…主动词不一致； it没有指代物件
            

(B) 正确， were as disturbing to his own time as they are
compelling for ours表明是过去的情况和现在的情况相对比，
        符合逻辑意思；
        比较双方概念对等，两个句子powerful style and his choices were disturbing to his
own time和they are compelling for ours进行比较
            

(C) in his own time表明应该用过去的某一个时态，因此has been现在完成时使用错误
            

(D) it没有指代； was使用错误，应该使用现在时are表明是过去跟现在相比(his own time… ours)

(E) 现在完成时错误；
        该比较结构是句子跟句子进行比较， as compelling for ours不是句子，
        因此比较的对象概念不对等
            

※句子结构:
Thomas Eakin’s powerful style and his choices… were as … as…
