比较的对象是：how much woman are likely to suffer from coronary heart disease
who ate nuts more than five times a week 是修饰成分，不是主要比较对象

Gone are the sharp edges and jutting planes of styles from former eras; instead, designers of everything from cars to computer monitors have adopted a cornerless style of smooth surfaces and curves that is more ergonomic, conforming to the shape of the body rather than flaunting shape for its own sake.

(B)more ergonomic, conformed to the body's shape and not to flaunting shape

2. do sth rather than do sth 不是么。

这题答案是A么？
这句话的前半部分用了倒装结构：
the sharp edges and jutting planes of styles from former eras are gone
那现在的styles是怎样的呢？？
更加符合人体工学拉，也就是贴合人的身体的形状，而不是一味突出炫耀物体自己的形状
Rather than..你说的很有道理….我得去翻翻语法资料

There are hopeful signs that we are shifting away from our heavy reliance on fossil fuels:  more than ten times as much energy is generated through wind power now than it was in 1990.

(A)generated through wind power now than it was

(B)generated through wind power now as it was

(C)generated through wind power now as was the case

(D)now generated through wind power as it was

(E)now generated through wind power than was the case

答案是C  D错在哪 it 不能指代energy吗？

这题很难阿….
我唯一能想到的解释就是… it 可能 是 energy 也可能是 wind power?
而这里要比较的是 energy generated through wind power now
和 energy generated through wind power in 1990
就是说不能单独指代了energy，要指代整个“energy generated through wind power”

Before scientists learned how to make a synthetic growth hormone, removing it painstakingly in small amounts from the pituitary glands of human cadavers.
(A)scientists learned how to make a synthetic growth hormone, removing it painstakingly

(B)scientists had learned about making a synthetic growth hormone, they had to remove it painstakingly

(C)scientists learned how to synthesize the growth hormone, it had to be painstakingly removed

(D)learning how to make a synthetic growth hormone, scientists had to remove it painstakingly

(E)learning how to synthesize the growth hormone, it had to be painstakingly removed by scientists

答案是C  我觉得C 和D没啥差别呢。。。为啥不选D呢？是逻辑上的问题吗

It的指代对象是本句最大的问题，读懂句子之后会发现it 指代的是“growth hormone”
A: it 指代a synthetic growth hormone 错
BD: 同上
E: 做learning 这个动作的是scientists，不是it ，所以错

正在看剩下的几题...过一会儿贴上来
