[讨论]OG11－004

initialzq

In the 1980's the rate of increase of the minority population of the United States was nearly twice as fast as the 1970's.
= In the 1980's the rate of X was ....... the 1970's
= the rate of X was in the 1980's .......... rate of X was in the 1970's
= the rate of X was in the 1980's .......... it was in the 1970's

(It should be like this for proper comparison)
only B and C remains.

B is not proper as because
rate1 .. as fast as .. rate2 not proper comparsion..
rate.. as much as... rate2 (looks ok)


C is the best option

应该是的

而且在这题里我觉得the figure这个新名词消除歧义的作用就是正确选项最好的标志。以后做到数字题目就找找有没有出现类似这类的新名词，比如that amount。

但是the number有时候出现在有两个数字同时存在的题目也会造成歧义。
