新PREP1-218

Only seven people this century have been killed by the great white shark, the man-eater of the movies—less than those killed by bee stings.

A. movies—less than those

B. movies—fewer than have been

C. movies, which is less than those

D. movies, a number lower than the people

E. movies, fewer than the ones

正确答案是B。请问E错在哪？比较省略的时候。好像ones作代词的选项极少对。。

如果错在the ones不能指代比较的主语,E选项改为movies, fewer than people（省略have been）是否正确呢？

最讨厌比较级的题。

E错在省略了have been，这个省略导致have been killed与killed时态不对应。

我觉得有个问题，这题B的have been前面是不是应该加上“those"之类表示前面重复的比较对象更完美？
