185.(26406-!-item-!-188;#058&001926)(GWD-8-Q41)

When drive-ins were at the height of their popularity in the late 1950s, some 4,000 existed in the United States, but today there are less than one-quarter that many

A. there are less than one-quarter that many

B. there are fewer than one-quarter as many

C. there are fewer than one-quarter of that amount

D. the number is less than one-quarter the amount

E. it is less than one-quarter of that amount
我怎么觉得B 后面的 as many.怪怪的？ D为什么不对？

the number是指4000这个数字，one quater是一个ratio

LZ~这是我摘自语法笔记里的解释，我觉得说的很清楚，不知道LZ看过木有~看过请忽略我~~~
(B) Correcet；补全省略即there are fewer than one-quarter as many (as there were at the height of their popularity in the late 1950s)； fewer修饰可数名词正确；one-quarter在此做副词修饰as many，后面不用再加of，类似于twice as many/much as。
(D) the number指代不清；the amount指代不清，只能修饰不可数名词；the number is less没有问题，less和smaller都可以修饰数字。
