新prep171疑问

One of the primary distinctions between our intelligence with that of other primates may lay not so much in any specific skill but in our ability to extend knowledge gained in one context to new and different ones.

A. between our intelligence with that of other primates may lay not so much in any specific skill but

B. between our intelligence with that of other primates may lie not so much in any specific skill but instead

C. between our intelligence and that of other primates may lie not so much in any specific skill as

D. our intelligence has from that of other primates may lie not in any specific skill as

E. of our intelligence to that of other primates may lay not in any specific skill but

请问这道题E选项的错误是否在于that指代不清，distinction包含不明？后面的not but结构用的对么？

另外正确选项as是介词么？so A as B， A与B是比较，必须平行？

E中的lay是最大的错误吧。把词都用错了

not ... but ...把原文的意思改变了，"不是。。而是"要比"和。。(分量)不一样"强硬的多。

as ... as ...在否定句中用作so ... as ...需要平行

lay看出来了，忘提了。。嘿嘿。

谢啦~

distinctions 只有between A and B 和 A from B两种用法吧

这样ABE就排除了

D has错 not so 。。。as不完整

distinguish/discriminate/distinction: 应该都有A from B和between A and B的用法, 不同点是前者的B包含了A, 而后者A和B是并列关系, 例如 discriminate between genuine diamonds and imitated diamonds, 而不能用 discriminate genuine diamonds from imitated diamonds
