Because 70 percent of the people of India use wood as their sole fuel, ten million acres of forest have been lost there since 1960, resulting in wood now costing eight times as much to collect and distribute than in 1960.
B
resulting in wood now costing eight times as much to collect and distribute as
D
and as a result wood now costs eight times as much to collect and distribute as it did
从比较对象上看肯定是D对。但我觉得这个结果应该是ten million acres of forest have been lost造成的,不应该和use wood as their sole fuel平行并列吧,求解答。
这题选D其实有逻辑和暗示可循
首先B选项resulting in wood有歧义,这里说的应该是导致了“现在木头。。。费用达到了八倍”,而不是导致了“木头”
其次不同时间点的比较(now vs in 1960)要补出谓语动词did,不能省略
最后画线句前面有逗号,暗示后面加介词and可以跟完整句子
跟完整句子的话,前后两句话就是并列关系,而不是伴随关系,符合语义
