OG17-689

仿若晴空

Thai village crafts, as with other cultures, have developed through the principle that form follows function and incorporate readily available materials fashioned using traditional skills.

(A) as with
(B) as did those of
(C) as they have in
(D) like in
(E) like those of

OG上的解释说the use here of as with is questionable. To do the job it is supposed to do here (to indicate that the crafts of Thai villages are like the crafts of other cultures in a particular way), as with should be at the beginning of the sentence: As with the crafts of other cultures, Thai village crafts have developed...Alternatively, like could be used here instead of as with. 首先请问这什么用as的话一定要放在句首，as with 在这里是Thai village crafts的修饰吧，为什么不能放在它的后面？其次在这里的话有as those of对不对呢？

前半部的問題有點看不懂
不過做題時看到選像出現as和like...我會先想到比較/平行
A)Thai village crafts, as with other cultures,
RON說先看右邊,再去對應左邊的是否有相對應詞出現...
這邊as with...去對照左邊(逗點前)並沒有with   不平行

這題OA應該是E) like those of吧?
如果有F)as those of
仍然E好

as和like的差別在於 like只能後面接N
as/like those of這邊後面沒有動詞,如果還選as的話那就是Redundant了
