07版本prep语法第36题请教

whitewoman

36. (26371-!-item-!-188;#058&002614)
Thomas Eakins's powerful style and his choices of subject--the advances in modern surgery,
the discipline of sport, the strains of individuals in tension with society or even with
themselves--was as disturbing to his own time as it iscompelling for ours.

(A) was as disturbing to his own time as it is
(B) were as disturbing to his own time as they are
(C) has been as disturbing in his own time as they are
(D) had been as disturbing in his own time as it was
(E) have been as disturbing in his own time as  

此题主语复数，可直接排除A，C。D过去完成时太恶心，而且后面那个it没指代。我想请问各位大大，E为何不行，笔记中说该题as...as为句子之间比较，故E错，但怎么看出是句子句子比较呢，前一个as不是在disturbing之间的吗，disturbing和与compelling比较，那么E也对了咯，此题绞尽脑汁学不明白。

谢谢

请问这里disturbing和compelling都翻译成什么意思啊？

E和B的结构是一样的，E因为have been前后一样就省略了后面的，B因为were和are前后形式不一致所以补出了they are，这是语法层面，剩下的就要从语义层面考虑了。
TE这个人有力的写作风格和他对主题的选择，在他那个时代引起的震动正如在今天给我们带来的巨大赞叹和吸引力。（BY 别人的翻译）
从语义出发，B和E中选B

对的，E的语法上是对的，因为在句子与句子比较的时候如果两个句子的主语和谓语是相同的时候可以同时省略 ...

想问从哪里可以看出来要体现时间不一样啊，我就是觉得没有明显的时间区分标志，所要一样，就选了E啊

想问为什么要体现时间的不一样？从哪里看出来

对的，E的语法上是对的，因为在句子与句子比较的时候如果两个句子的主语和谓语是相同的时候可以同时省略，但是这题E中按照省略以后就没有体现出时间上的不同，所以应该选B。

恩，所以说是时态错误，并非笔记里说的应该跟句子不该跟词对比对吧。因为A does as good as B/ B does/do ...

。。乱了 貌似是的。 跟词比较有时候是因为省略了一些东西。如果省略成立那么和词比较也对啊。。

所以说B项里的were与现在的are形成一个时态上的对比，所以我们认为B里更准确是吧。那个谈毅的prep笔记里 ...

前面一句话和后面一句话比较  Owning a house is a goal of many young people as it was of earlier generations.   楼上说的对，这里面关键是要体现出前后时态不一致，一个是过去的影响一个是现在的，如果你后面像E一样就默认了时态和前面是一致的

LZ,作者比较的同时还要表达一个时间的不一样，句子意思是homas Eakins's powerful style and his choices o ...

所以说B项里的were与现在的are形成一个时态上的对比，所以我们认为B里更准确是吧。那个谈毅的prep笔记里写“(E)        现在完成时错误;        该比较结构是句子跟句子进行比较, as compelling for ours不是句子,        因此比较的对象概念不对等”。实际上我是被这个笔记搞糊涂了，您能帮我看下谈毅这个解释靠谱吗。我发现这笔记有几个地方不大给力
