and seafood, suppliers are growing fish twice as fast as their natural
growth rate, cutting their feed allotment by nearly half and raising them
on special diets.

    

 

    

(A) their natural growth rate, cutting their feed
allotment

    

(B) their natural growth rate, their feed
allotment cut

    

(C) growing them naturally, cutting their feed
allotment

    

(D) they grow naturally, cutting their feed
allotment

    

(E) they grow naturally, with their feed allotment
cut

C为什么不对, 后面是说cut 饲料分配,所以应该是和普通人工养殖比较啊. 而且c很对称啊. comments???

A选项 suppliers are growing fish twice as fast as their natural growth rate
这里的fast是做状语 是副词 不能修饰rate 退一步说 即便fast是形容词 它与rate也是不搭配的
故而A B排除

C选项 suppliers are growing fish twice as fast as growing them naturally, cutting their feed allotment by nearly half and raising them on special diets.
排除C的原因可能是产生了歧义 即可以理解成第二个growing...与cutting...and raising..平行
A is as fast as B, C and D. 而实际上A只与B有比较关系，C，D是伴随状语

欢迎拍砖

Ｃ并不对称，结构为a do b as fast as c do d

恩  楼主没有有解释的破解版吗  那里面大牛说因为growing them naturall的意思是自然的养这些鱼  逻辑意思不对 因该是鱼类自然的生长

LS说的对，C改变了原句的意思

这样的并列them的指代会不会有问题呀？

roguehsl

理解为并列是不对的，逻辑意义上好象不通．

The comparison object is the rate of fish's growing.

suppliers are growing fish (here omits "at some rate")twice as fast as their natural growth rate,
