Africa's black rhino population in the mid-1970's numbered about 20,000, ten times the estimated population of 2,000 in 1997.
A. the estimated population
B. that of their estimated population
C. more than the population's estimated amount
D. more black rhinos than their population estimate
E. more than that of their population's estimated amount

答案是A，其中BDE的their指代不清，C中的population和amount作比较了，逻辑错了，只剩下A，不过对于A在句子中的作用还是不太明白，ten times the estimated population of 2,000 in 1997这段应该是20,000的同位语，不过XX times后面直接连接名词的结构好像没有见过，一般都是XX times + 比较级 + than，请问这是什么语法现象？请NN指点：）

A选项的的谓语有numbered， 我觉得times也是谓语，但是这样就两个谓语中间无连接词了，求问times不是谓语的话是什么词性什么成分？

什么倍数比较规鬼贴，就在这里误人子弟，我认为就只有主系结构加倍数才符合你以上规则，如you eat food twice  more  than do I

另外 C是 population和amount作比较

你不觉得 the population’s estimated amount of 2,000     ’s 和 of 所有格混用很罗嗦吗

为什么说C选项的逻辑不对啊？比较不同了么？

楼上的楼上说的比较后面一定要是名词，可是有一道PREP不是这样的
Only seven people this century have been killed by the 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

这道题选B啊，我当时也觉得名词应该跟名词比较，所以选了E

上面说的情况是倍数的表达，不适用于所有的比较，只限于倍数的
然后这个题目么 我觉得首先是平行的概念 主句部分结构是 主语+have been+killed byXX B中的结构是最能表示平行的
然后是比较对象的对等 A. less than those                   those指的是什么呢?shark?movies?还是people?
B. fewer than have been                                             fewer表示变少了 than后面应该是省略了和主句重复的部分，也就是people
C. movies,which is less than those                               which指代成movies,those指代不清
D. movies, a number lower than the people                主语是people，用a number表示不妥当吧 还有就是a number跟在movies和逗号后面 是不是指代有歧义呢？
E. movies, fewer than the ones                                   这里的fewer紧跟在逗号和movies的后面，那就有指代上的问题了,fewer是指movies么？还有后面the ones的指代，这里也可以产生是指代man-eater的歧义吧

个人意见啦 欢迎讨论！
