Prep195. (GWD-7-Q13)  Due to可以用attributed to或caused by替代来权衡逻辑上是否合理,其次due to,similar to,differing from等有形容词性质的介词,GMAT中一般不能出现在句首.

借此题问下:many times as rare as和many times more rare than的区别?
感觉根据曼哈顿的解释,后者是不对的啊>.<

如果想表示成倍的数量,用times + as…as…。
Right: The man is five times as old as his grandson. 表示他是他孙子年龄的五倍
Wrong: The man is five times older than his grandson. 表示他是他孙子年龄的六倍
times greater than不要用
