深海的小美人鱼

76.    Rembrandt so treasured his collection of Islamic portraits that when forced to sell them in order to raise money, he first made copies of more than twenty.
(A) he first made copies of more than twenty
(B) first he made copies of more than twenty
(C) more than twenty were copied
(D) copies of more than twenty were made
(E) he copies more than twenty of them first

我怎么觉得E更顺口呢？到底这里first的位置有什么讲究吗？

89.    Corporations will soon be required to report to the government whether they have the necessary reserves to pay the pension benefits earned by their employees and that the information be published in annual reports to shareholders.
(A) earned by their employees and that the information be published
(B) that their employees earned and that the information be published
(C) that was earned by their employees with the information being published
(D) earned by their employees, information that must also be published

在这里information是同位语吗？答案是D。我怎么不理解这个句子呢？
(E) earned by their employees and published the information

99.    The use of chemical pesticides in this country is equally extensive or more so than ten years ago.
(A) equally extensive or more so than ten years ago
(B) equal to or more extensive than ten years ago
(C) as extensive as ten years ago or more
(D) equal to, if not more, than ten years ago
(E) as extensive as it was ten years ago, if not more so

B 错在哪里了呢？答案是E、我怎么读得那么别扭？

76、E的时态COPIES有问题。FIRST的位置有讲究，但是这里似乎对意思影响不大。

89、INFORMATION是同位语，指代whether they have the necessary reserves to pay the pension benefits earned by their employees 这个INFORMATION。这是ETS常用的形式。

99、B 比较对象不对等，比较的是主语，而THAN后直接接了状语，应该补出IT WAS。IF NOT MORE SO是固定搭配，表示“就算不多于的话”
