这题在kaplan模拟考试的时候碰见的，总觉得四曾相识。答案是A。Kaplan的解释是： In a complicated sentence like this, it ’ s probably best to focus on eliminating wrong answers. There are some wrong phrases that may stick out to you, such as “ such a number of Astronomy majors in a given year as there are today, ” in (D). Or “ a number of majors such as there are today, ” in (C). You would use “ as many as there are, ” not “ a number such as there are. ” (E) has the strange locution “ a number ... just as large ... as the number that is there today. ” (This is awkward and repetitive.) (B) changes the meaning of the sentence by moving the phrase “ in a given year. ” (C) and (D) illogically begin with “ while. ” The original sentence misses all these errors and is correct as is.
whereas用來introduce一個句子跟主句造成對比 (contrast), 可是Vassar is a much larger, coeducational college和founding professor and astronomer Maria Mitchell taught as many Astronomy majors in a given year as there are today沒有對比可言
