关于more likely than .... 加急求救！ 两个题解释完全不一样 哪个对

Uya

有题目解释是：
four times as likely as…和four times more likely than…都是可以的
但是此题
According to a survey of graduating medical students conducted by the Association of American Medical Colleges, 【minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than are other graduates in planning to practice】 in socioeconomically deprived areas.

B  minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than other graduates who plan on practicing
C.  minority graduates are nearly four times as likely as other graduates to plan on practicing
     答案C    解释是 more likely than 是错误用法

到底哪个对？？？ 到底怎么用？？？？  呼叫大牛们

Be likely to do 是固定结构，
B 中构不成这个结构，所以错误

Uya

minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than other graduates who plan on practicing
改成
minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than other graduates to plan on practicing 就对了
理由：who引导的从句限制性定从修饰graduates，句子缺成分。

关于你的问题，在mahattan里有这样一句话，four times more than实际上是在说five times as likely as，显然是啰嗦了。。。啰嗦的错误不能作为做题break的点，只有在其他所有条件相同的情况下才用此判定。
