89.Salt deposits and moisture threaten to destroy the Mohenjo-Daro excavation in Pakistan,the site of an ancient civilization that flourished at the same time as thecivilizations in the Nile Delta and the river valleys of the Tigris and Euphrates.

(A) that flourished at the same time as the civilizations(correct)
(B) that had flourished at the same time as had thecivilizations
(C) that flourished at the same time those had
(D) flourishing at the same time as those did
(E) flourishing at the same time as those were

想问下这句是什么与什么的对比？是time与time的对比还是一个文明与另外两个文明的对比？
不是说as表示对比的时候只能借整个句子吗？为什么这里as之后跟的是短语啊？

求大神指点！！跪谢！！
