According to analysts, an alliance between three major personal computer companies and most of the nation’s largest local telephone companies would enable customers to receive internet data over regular telephone lines with speeds much higher than is currently possible.

 

A.      with speeds much higher than is

B.       with speeds that are much higher than are

C.      at much higher speeds as are

D.      at much higher speeds than that

E.       at speeds much higher than are

答案选E，我选了D，E的结构不太清楚，做题有点做晕了...我也觉得这是简单题，但是...

同问

当同一个对象自己在不同的时间比较时，than 后面可以省去主词。
至于动词可不可以省略，要看比较的时间是怎样？

如果就这一题，at speeds用法删掉A, B
higher ...than不是higher ...as删掉C
higher修饰的名词是复数，所以D的that一定不对
剩下E

open to discuss

请问这道题than后省略的部分是什么？我觉得如果能解决这个问题，选E就没问题了

than省speeds

enable customers to receive internet data over regular telephone lines at speeds much higher than (speeds) are currently possible

补全以后than前后的结构不对称呀

Only seven people this century have been killed by the great white shark, the man-eater of the movies—less than those killed by bee stings.

a. movies—less than those
b. movies—fewer than have been
c. movies, which is less than those
d. movies, a number lower than the people
e. movies, fewer than the ones

答案B，全句补全后是 seven people...have been killed by the great white shark.... fewer than (people) have been killed by bee stings   than前后形式对称。但GWD21-Q1补全后形式不对称呀

时间的沙漏

我认为应该是，不管怎样都是复数，只能选E，排除法

 over regular telephone lines at speeds much higher than (speeds of the lines) are currently possible

未来的线路速度比现在线路的速度快

higher只能是speed, 比较对象应该是speeds of lines
