GWD1-Q16-新问题：比较从句中时态问题

agirlnotsmart

GWD1-Q16:

Soaring television costs accounted for more than half the spending in the presidential campaign of 1992, a greater proportion than it was in any previous election.

a greater proportion than it was

a greater proportion than

a greater proportion than they have been

which is greater than was so

which is greater than it has been

大家以前讨论的结果是B，因为A的时态不对，该用过去完成时态。但是请看下面2道题目均用的是过去时态在比较从句中，其实觉的下面2句也该用过去完成时态，但是答案都没有给过去完成时的选项！如何判定比较从句中的时态呢？似乎根据下面2句的例子，GWD的这道题目应该选A了呀（难道GWD这道和下面2道的情况不同？）

急盼牛牛指点！

我觉得这三题主要看than后边的指代和平行问题，第一题中的it was 无指代对象，也无平行动词；而第二三题就不存在这个问题

谢谢楼上，也就是说不用考虑时态了？

其实我觉的后面2题比较从句中用过去完成时态更好些（在此处如何区别过去时和过去完成时呢？），大家说呢？

关于BY那道题目,twice 的用法是:twice+what从句,或twice+the+n.

GWD1-Q16　中是 in any previous year 所以用过去完成时要好。

这个题目其实主要是平行和并列的关系，跟时态的关系不大，

如果完整表述的话，这个答案应该是这样的

a greater proportion than they accounted for, 或者than they had accounted for.
