4－be likely to do 固定结构，排除A/B；four times as many as和four times more...than两个结构本身都没有问题。

10－E中they的指代比较模糊，没有D来得清楚简洁；此外，because...(then)...这样的结构优于(then)...because...(哈哈，不要到12题的时候问我为什么所有的选项都用了不好的表达，我们找答案是找一个相比最好的，而不是一个在语法和逻辑上都是完美无缺的)

12－如你所言，一般情况下，非生命的东东不是不能用所有格吗(system’s)，但是一来，这个范畴本来就比较模糊，二来，D的错误在于：1.capability不如ability好；2.special与especial有差异（可以查其他帖子）；3.the capability of XX to do是一个有歧异的表达，the capability to do和the capability of (XX to do) 这两种理解都可以成立
