“比较从句与主句时态不一致, 即两个比较对象的动作是相同的,但发生的时间却不一致, 或同一事物的相同动作发生的时间不同,than 或as从句补出的助动词的时态由时间状语和句子意思决定, 例如:
I eat more food than he did last year
The economy of ffice:smarttags" />Florida is more diversified than it was ten years ago”
根据以上原则, 885 sec 3-24, 因为描述的都发生在过去, 所以 was 省略, 补全如下
In his eagerness to find a city worthy of   riam, the German archaeologist Schliemann cut through Troy and uncovered a civilization (that was) a thousand years more ancient than the city (was) known to Homer’s heroes
但是为了简练, ”A civilization” 后面全部改为名词短语, 作为uncovered 的宾语, known 同时 在”known to Homer’s heroes”作为过去分词修饰the city, 比较的对象是civilization 和city
170. …making the construction industry’s economic health much more robust than it(指代economic) was five years ago, 作为主句的伴随状语, 描述的是当前事物的伴随结果,并且要与过去比较, 所以 was 补出以使意思完整合理
