大全上的168题： Because the Earth's crust is more solid there and thus better able to transmit shock waves, an earthquake （ of a given magnitude typically devastates an area 100 times greater in the eastern United States than it does in the West）.
(A) of a given magnitude typically devastates an area 100 times greater in the eastern United States than it does in the West (B) of a given magnitude will typically devastate 100 times the area if it occurs in the eastern United States instead of the West (C) will typically devastate 100 times the area in the eastern United States than one of comparable magnitude occurring in the West (D) in the eastern United States will typically devastate an area 100 times greater than will a quake of comparable magnitude occurring in the West (E) that occurs in the eastern United States will typically devastate 100 times more area than if it occurred with comparable magnitude in the West
A：it 指代前面的an earthquake of a given magnitude， 二者不同. B：同样it指代有误。 instead of 做比较，错误。 C：应该用will表示宾语an area比较 D选项：will devastate an area 100 times greater than a quake of comparable magnitude .... will devastate .. 属于宾语比较。

E：than 后面的if使得比较不平衡。

谢谢楼主！
D项，如果是宾语比较，a quake of comparable magnitude 为什么跑到will后面去了呢？
