A study on couples' retirement transitions found that women who took new jobs after retiring from their primary careers reported high marital satisfaction, more than when retiring completely.

(A) more than when retiring
(B) more than if they were to retire
(C) more so than those who retired
(D) which was more so than those retiring
(E) which was more than if they had retired

看了几个讨论贴，还没有找到可以信服的答案，请教各位同仁！

在running2k的贴子上看到如下意见：

个人比较同意这个观点，我来把原文重现一下：

more (women who took new jobs after retiring from their primary careers ) so (=reported high marital satisfaction ) than those retired completely.

这个MORE我觉得不是adv的比较次，而是数量的adj的比较词，翻译过来就是相比于那些退休后就不在工作的女士，更多的退休后又工作的女士对婚姻很满意。

我的问题是，a study found that后面的两个句子，没有任何连词的情况下就这样平行着，有问题吧！

句子的结构是： A study found that ...., more so than those....
more so than 修饰前面从句的内容，不是平行结构

找到一个例句：Wireless security is a challenging problem, even more so than wired security in many respects。

我个人的看法是这样的：
more 作adj讲，位于句尾，作伴随状语，adj的逻辑主语应该是句子的主语，状语从句还原的话应该是s + being + adj...；

more的逻辑主语应该是句子的主语the women, 谓语是reported，so在这里指代high marital satisfaction；

整句还原后是(the women who took...repoted) more (high marital satisfaction) than (did)those who retired. 这里satisfaction 和those(women)属于不同类的对象，不会引起歧义，所以即便在比较主语，同时又出现了宾语的情况下，did也是可以省略的。

不知道各位有何高见！

谢谢你的回复！

综合两个句子，得出如下结论：

A + v + adj + n, more so than B.
这句话还原的效果就是，A + v + adj +n. Moreover, (A + v ) + adjer +n + than B (+ v).

是这样吗？
