(C) minority graduates are nearly four times as likely as other graduates to plan on practicing
(D) it is nearly four times more likely that minority graduates rather than other graduates will plan to practice
(E) it is nearly four times as likely for minority graduates than other graduates to plan to practice

我看了坛子里面这个题目的帖子 可是还是有些纠结~
be likely to do才是对的 可是问题在于，如果选C的话不算改变题目的意思么？
虽然 没有be likely in doing这个说法~

谢谢各位了~

说说我的理解
four times more likely than 肯定不对了，举个manhattan的例子 Mike is 4 years older than Tom. 是对的，也可以说Mike is 4 times as old as Tom. 但你不可以说Mike is 4 times older than Tom.

符合这个结构的就只有C
plan on doing 打算做某事

看了你的解释，觉得很有道理，但是刚看prep2008语法笔记，238题解释就说times的比较有X times more than的结构啊，章振邦语法中也出现了此结构？怎么回事呢？求解释~~~~~
