Regulators are likely to end what are,in effect, long-standing exemptions permitting pilots of small turbopropaircraft at small carriers to fly as much as 20 percent more hours per monththan pilots at larger airlines fly, with the consequence that some carrierscould be forced to hire additional pilots.
A. as much as 20 percent more hours per month than pilots at larger airlinesfly, with the consequence that
B. as many as 20 percent more hours per month as pilots at larger airlines, and
C. more hours per month, as much as 20percent, than pilots at larger airlines; consequently
D. as much as 20 percent more hours per month as larger airlines’ pilots, so
E. as many as 20percent more hours per month than pilots at larger airlines do, andconsequently
答案:E
有两个问题: 1)什么时候用as much as和as many as? 比如像这种percent+可数名词,是用as much as形容percent,还是用as much as形容hours? 2)E选项的do是否可以省略?如果是为了避免歧义不能省略的话,do代表的是to fly的话为什么不是permitting pilots of small turboprop aircraft at small carriers to fly as many as 20 percent more hours per month than pilots at larger airlines to do?
提前感谢uus~
