In1852 Robert Angus Smith published a detailed report of the chemistry of rain kin a large area around the city of Manchester, England, noting that the closer one came to town, the more the city air would become increasingly acidic.

A.that the closer one came to town, the more the city air would become increasingly acidic

B.that the city air became increasingly acidic the closer one came to town

C.that coming closer to town, the city air became increasingly acidic

D.that the more the city air became increasingly acidic, the closer one was to town

E.the city air becoming increasingly acidic as one would come closer to town

这题答案是A， 我选了C。我觉得A错误的理由是：one指代对象不清，且more 和increasingly有语义重复。
不知道大家是怎么做这道题的呢？ 请大家帮忙解答一下哦！

想问下that后面有逗号好吗？

我个人觉得more和increasingly没有重复哦，因为more应该是much的比较级，就像前一句的closer是也是副词closely的比较级一样（平行）

老白在费城

这道题目答案是B啊。很肯定。

你确定答案是对的哦？
怎么感觉B更合适一些？A里面的the more the city air would become increasingly acidic感觉像是重复啊，the more和increasingly，就我一个人这么认为吗

这道题目的正确答案是B而不是A。详解如下：1、more和increasingly不能连用，故AD错；2、C错在that之后的宾 ...

同意！

在此更正 选B prep为准

国外论坛上GMAT专家的解释如下：
A: THE MORE the city air would become INCREASINGLY
D: THE MORE the city air became INCREASINGLY
Here, the more and increasingly are redundant.
Eliminate A and D.

In C, coming seems to be modifying the city air, implying a nonsensical meaning: that the CITY AIR was coming closer to town. Eliminate C.

In E, noting the city air implies that Robert Angus Smith was noting the AIR itself.
Not the intended meaning.
Rather, Robert Angus Smith was noting what the air DID:
THAT the city air BECAME increasingly acidic.
Eliminate E.
但是选B的话that the city air became increasingly acidic the closer one came to town这句话是什么语法结构呢？不太懂the closer one came to twon  是什么成分。而且意思上当一个人走的离城镇越近，城市空气就变的越酸？人走进跟城市空气变酸连接起来感觉不合逻辑
然后C的话我觉得coming closer to town是做the city air became increasingly acidic的伴随状语，意思是当城市空气离市中心越来越近的时候，它会越来越酸，就像地理学的空气流 从郊区吹响市区的感觉，我觉得这样很合理，但是那个expert说扭曲意思了，不太懂，求指教

这题选B啊。 the more 和increasingly 明显重复

这题我在GMATprep遇到了，答案B。A明显的累赘，the more 和increasingly同为副词。向前面的同学说的，one应该指代rain。the closer one came to town是用于比较的状语从句(adverbial clause)
