885 Section4-11 答案有误？

11.   Several studies have found that the coronary patients who exercise most actively have half or less than half the chance of dying of a heart attack as those who are sedentary.

(A) have half or less than half the chance of dying of a heart attack as those who are sedentary

(B) have half the chance, or less, of dying of a heart attack than those who are sedentary do

(C) have half the chance that they will die of a heart attack, or less, than those who are sedentary do

(D) are at least fifty percent less likely to die of a heart attack as those who are sedentary（E）

(E) are at least fifty percent less likely than those who are sedentary to die of a heart attack

答案是E。

两个问题：

1. E把to die of a heart attack后置了，这样对吗？我印象中没有这种前面省略，后面补出的比较。

2. A可以省略have吗？如果可以的话，是不是答案A更好？

1. 看不出to die of a heart attack后置有什麼不對...anyone?
2. A的as不對...在A中的as都不match任何一個在LZM中有提過as的用法..

half the chance as...没问题啊。

LZM的语法有很多错误的，建议不要全信。

yea...LZM's book有很多error, 可是還不錯啦(如果沒時間看別的=P)...
half the chance as是okay..可是在half the chance跟as中間插了less than half the chance, 好像不平衡.
如果分開寫:
Several studies have found that the coronary patients who exercise most actively have half the chance of dying of a heart attack as those who are sedentary.
Several studies have found that the coronary patients who exercise most actively have less than half the chance of dying of a heart attack as those who are sedentary.
half the chance or less than half the chance of...as...我覺得不平衡....
不是很sure...可是E就沒有這個問題....
Anyone??
