GWD-18-Q11

In no other historical sighting did Halley’s comet cause such a worldwide sensation as did its return in 1910-1911.

1. did its return in 1910-1911

2. had its 1910-1911 return
3. in its return of 1910-1911

4. its return of 1910-1911 did
5. its return in 1910-1911

我选C, 提示答案为A。

我认为句子的结构应该是：

In no other historical sighting did Halley’s comet cause such a sensation as (Halley’s comet did) in its return of 1910-1911

its return 是一个historical sighting, 符合平行原则

A 明显错误，...as did its return 将“产生轰动”的主语变成 its return，而不是哈雷彗星了。

请大家一起探讨一下，谢谢各位！！ 

这道题的意思就是讲its return产生轰动效应而不是Halley's comet本身

从1910-1911的使用也可以判断出正确答案，只有in是正确的，——》AE。而E需要补出did

讨论都看过了，还是不是很明了

A把Halley’s comet和its return并列比较，很牵强啊～请NN指点

In no other historical sighting did Halley’s comet cause such a worldwide sensation as did its return in 1910-1911.

我觉得这个句子本来应该是: Halley’s comet  caused
                such
                a worldwide sensation
                as
                its return
                did
                in 1910-1911 in no other historical sighting ,但是in no other historical sighting 被提前之后全句倒装：

In no other historical sighting
                        did
                        Halley’s comet
                        cause
                        such a worldwide sensation
                            as
                        did its return  in 1910-1911
                    

Ａ选项前后两个倒装句子平行，是正解

up

同意，its return不用严格地跟Halley's comet平行对等，因为主句和从句的两个主语不是严格的比较形式，不能用“比较对象要对等”去解这道题，as只是一个单纯的从句，表达的就是只有它的回归才能产生轰动效应，而不是它本身。

return of 1910也可以阿

比如说 我们经常说的 the best music of 2009 这样不行咩？
