Prep1-114 不懂為何用more so than

个人认为：
C中之所以有so是因为 ：
原文想表达的是在X情况（退休后又找新工作）下的妇女报告了高满意度；Y情况下（完全退休）的妇女也表达了高满意度。但是原句想要对比的是前者比后者更可能表达出这样的高满意度！！
如果将so去掉，就变成 X情况下报告高满意度的妇女和Y情况下的妇女作对比，这两者显然是不对等的，也不符合原文的逻辑含义。
所以C项是正确的，so代表的就是reported high marital satisfaction

小花呱

og12的貌似是第一题：who so named中的so 也是指代。
同意这里的so指代reported high satisification. 必须这里用so以避免women歧义。

 so＝reported high marital satisfaction

我觉得把，这里是不同的妇女的比较，不能够用those，those不就是指代了前面的那一群妇女吗，是指同一群妇女？ 请赐教

亲，你记反了

人称代词如it they them是指代同一批人；

指示代词 如that those是不同一批人；

Manhattan Instructor,觉得解释得很透彻：

“more so" is used in making a "more than" type of comparison where you also want to refer to a previously stated verb / action (that's where the "so" comes in). In this case, the "so" refers to "reported high marital satisfaction."

而关于在more than这种比较结构里为什么用so,什么时间用so:
if it's not a specific NOUN that can be replaced by a PRONOUN (usually "it"), then use the all-purpose replacement "...so".
perhaps the most common usage in which you'll see this is "do it" vs. "do so":
wrong: i've always wanted to jump out of a plane, but i've never had the chance to do it. --> this is wrong because the only possible antecedent for "it" is plane, and it doesn't make any sense to talk about "doing" a plane.
correct: i've always wanted to jump out of a plane, but i've never had the chance to do so. --> "do so" = jump out of a plane.

you would extend this same type of extra freedom to "more so": if the comparison isn't quite parallel, and/or is ambiguous, without the "so", then go ahead and toss it in there; it doesn't have to have a single-word antecedent.
