我认为没有对称
应该为
Although people in France consume fatty foods at a rate comparable to the people in the United Sates do,
这样的表达又显然很不简洁

还是不怎么明白

kallyli

比较对象对等
或者改成
Although people in France consume fatty foods at a rate comparable to the rate at which people consume fatty foods in the US（不知道哪里可以省略得简单一点）
这样更准确，我的意思就是说原句是rate和United States在比较

这个题一直看不明白，哪位大N帮着完整的分析一下？

个人认为kallyli回答正解。A的比较逻辑意思不对，at rate 不能comparable to US

kallyli回答是正确的。 补充一点是：compare to 直接放在a rate 后面而不用逗号隔开很容易引起歧义，因此最好补充逗号，并且比较对象要对等，完美形式应该是，compared to(最好用compared with) people in US.

再补充一点，their是指谁呢？到底是指people还是rate还是其他什么？指代不清

我觉得D最准确，平行结构
