说零售商在11月汇报了一般的收益,(同等as much...as),既因为他们之前那年销售很差,也因为这一年消费者才开始购买过节的礼品。 我会选D,A,B,C because of sth...being(having been)是wordy的用法。E中as much丢掉了后面的as (as bad as全用了),而且那个that没有指代对象,而且逻辑混乱。。。。。。 D的结构:as much because sth as because sth,因为整体时态是过去(reported),a year earlier已经是过去的过去了(reported之前一年),所以justify过去完成时的使用。
