123. She was less successful after she had emigrated to New York compared to her native Germany, photographer Lotte Jacobi nevertheless earned a small group of discerning admirers, and her photographs were eventually exhibited in prestigious galleries across the United States.
(A)     She was less successful after she had emigrated to New York compared to
(B)     Being less successful after she had emigrated to New York as compared to
(C)     Less successful after she emigrated to New York than she had been in
(D)     Although she was less successful after emigrating to New York when compared to
(E)     She had been less successful after emigrating to New York than in
答案是c
Less successful after she emigrated to New York than she had been in her native Germany, photographer Lotte Jacobi nevertheless earned a small group of discerning admirers, and her photographs were eventually exhibited in prestigious galleries across the United States.

关于than的比较对像，总算弄清楚了，比较的其实是两个句子：

she was less successful after she emigrated to New York than she had been in her native Germany.
黑体是前半句的状语, than 后面省略了successful, 但没省谓语 had been, 因与前半句谓语不同，不省是为了表明状态的先后

实际应是：
she was less successful (after she emigrated to New York) than she had been (successful) (in her native Germany).
由此更可以看出比较的不是状语，而是成功的程度，也就是全句，全句所要表达的意思。

我的问题是：解释上说逗号不能连句子，这个我明白，但nevertheless即可以做副词也可以做连词，在这里怎么就知道它一定是副词不是连词呢

说说我的理解

首先看到less就知道比较级了，所以马上选定less than，这样迅速选定C和E

看到比较级than那么肯定又回去前后的平衡了。E的than的前半部分是句子，后面是一个in的宾语，对比对象不平横。再看看C，she emigrated to NY和she had been in Germany，看上去都是平衡的。

希望有用，如果有错误请指出

这个nevertheless明显是在主句主语的后边， LJ的后边，不是在主句的前边

同意这个说法

选项B和C为什么不是句子，而是修饰结构？
感觉是句子阿，有SHE主语，还有HAD emigrated 和emigrated？

这个有这个结构的解释，但是我怎么还觉得B，C是个句子呢

这道题OG的解释中有一句话:
The opening clause "She was less successful..."therefore creates a comma splice if the comma is not followed by a conjunction.
是不是说只有nevertheless 放到了逗号后面，才可以把它当做连词来看。或者说，如果逗号后面没有连词，就看做两个句子被放到了一起。
所以做连词的情况只可能是 “句1，nevertheless(,) 句2”

求拍砖~~

顶一下，等详细解释呀

vilawe

adv. 仍然,不过
conj. 然而,不过
句子里是仍然的意思，所以nevertheless在这里看成是副词

还是比较对象的问题，after she had emigrated to New York 和her native Germany不能做比较

wanrita

Nevertheless是连接副词，可以连两个句子，但前题是：”主句；Nevertheless,主句” 这种结构，如果不是则不能连两个主句。
