看了汇总贴还是不会 OG132

132. According to a study by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, companies in the United States are providing job training and general education for nearly eight million people, about （equivalent to the enrollment of the nation's four-year colleges and universities.）
(A) equivalent to the enrollment of
(B) the equivalent of those enrolled in
(C) equal to those who are enrolled in
(D) as many as the enrollment of
(E) as many as are enrolled in

答案A

这里省了主语

根据精华的讲解：比较的两主语是同一个才能省第2个啊？

但是感觉前边的people和后边的people不是同一个阿？前者是参加job training and general education 的  后者是enrolled in colleges and universities的   为什么省了主语people呢？

答案似乎是E？？

就是因为前后的people指的是不同的人群，所以把比较后的主语省略了。

如果不省略,前后的 people 指同一组人，就混淆了。

people, about as many as people are enrolled in the nation's four-year colleges and universities.

能不能这样看：

equivalent--- something is equivalent to something. However, here it is "8 M people",

ABC are gone.

D, as many as, --- "8 M people" and "the enrollment" can not be put into one comparison.
