Despite the recent election of a woman to the office of prime minister, the status of women in Pakistan is little changed from how it was in the last century.
(A) is little changed from how it was
(B) is a little change from how it was
(C) has changed little
(D) has changed little from how it has been
(E) is little changed from the way it was
答案是C。
总结前人的帖，问题在於：
1：A和E 的错误在哪里？
2：如果选C，时态和in the last century 不符合，怎么理解？
3： C和D的区别？
多谢！

in the last century 是大段的时间概念，要用现在完成时；change不需要用被动语态；C足够表达清楚意思，其他选项罗嗦。

in the last century 是大段的时间概念，要用现在完成时-这个确定吗？

看了以前关于这道题的帖子 说是因为前面the recent election  导致过去延伸到现在而选择完成时的

不过

141 In the last ten years, the dropout rate among Black high school students fell substantially over the past decade, while the number of Blacks who attend college is more than twice what it was.

(A) fell substantially over the past decade, while the number of Blacks who attend college is more than twice what it was

(B) fell substantially, while the number of Blacks attending college is more than double what it was at that time

(C) has fallen substantially, while the number of Blacks attending college has more than doubled （C）

(D) has fallen substantially over the past decade, while the number of Blacks attending college is more than twice what it was at that time
            

(E) has fallen substantially over the past decade, while the number of Blacks who are attending college are more than double what they were

也因为有个In the last ten years而选择了完成时

所以不解。。。
