SC 太妖了

why not can't we view charging as an participle modifying those which is used refer to other institutions?

同意楼上的, 该题的并列形式是 as many institutions.....as those(指代institutions) charging.....

Just pass by and see my old response. 呵呵。。。

I have to admit that my answer was wrong. Sorry if I have misled anyone.

Yes, the answer is E, period.

OMG...什么烂题目,决定遇到选D

OG里面出现类似的题目都是强调平行,平行,平行

所以虽然D念起来有点拗口, 但是E绝对是违反了平行

想考800分的，相信我，答案绝对是 A……

你拿这题问英语国家出来的人，都马上回答你是A

为什么？因为中国的语法书里没有写

hmm...I thought that the answer was E....
I think that I saw it in an old OG....

那请问一下as 后面是跟分词结构而不是句子结构吗？？？

According to a 1996 survey by the National Association of College and University Business Officers, more than three times as many independent institutions of higher education charge tuition and fees of under $8,000 a year than those that charge over $16,000.    




D.   as charge




E.    as those charging

偶年轻时也曾像你那样迷惘过，现在倾向于选E。现在语法越来越倾向于整体的逻辑意思。本句的意思应该是收8000的学校是收16000的学校的三倍。这个没问题吧。如果选D，就变成了：Three times as many institutions charge 8000 dollars as charge 16000 dollars.  意思显然不对，就像通常所说的不能“自己和自己比”是一个道理
正确表达应该是： Three times as many institutions charge 8000 dollars as those charging 16000 dollars. 即有些学校收8000，而另外一些学校收16000。
偶觉得此题最大的问题是前后的逻辑主语不一致，这在语法中属于“一票否决权”，所以不能省，即OG解释通常所说的是否（understood），correctiveness的错误，而charging你如果要算，也顶多算个effectiveness，而且其实根本就没有错，因为用分词形式正好说明了它的动词特征（收费），避免产生当作名词的歧义（费用）
这些题目出的确实叹为观止，SIGH！希望偶能讲明白了。
