Thomas Eakins' powerful style and his choices of subject----the advances in modern surgery, the discipline of sport, the strains of individuals in tension with society or even with themselves----was as disturbing to his own time as it is compelling for ours.

A) was as disturbing to his own time as it is

B) were as disturbing to his own time as they are

C) has been as disturbing in his own time as they are

D) had been as disturbing in his own time as it was

E) have been as disturbing in his own time as

请问为什么是B而不是E

这里为什么不能用现在完成时呢？？

谢谢！

gmat中，没有明确提示的不用完成时态，e后面应当补出they are，不然比较成分不合逻辑

Thomas Eakins' powerful style and his choices of subject----the
advances in modern surgery, the discipline of sport, the strains of
individuals in tension with society or even with themselves----was as disturbing to his own time as it is compelling for ours.

1. correctiveness:

his own time是是过去的时代，对过去时代的影响没道理用现在完成时。要用也是过去完成时。 不能选

    
2.Effectiveness
disturbing in his own time 是形容词+作状语的介宾词组。但 his own time 不是disturbing的对象

it is compelling for ours. 同样是形容词+作状语的介宾词组， ours是compelling的对象。

上述结构勉强可以，但不严格符合parralism

B) were as disturbing to his own time as they are 这个词组中his own time是disturbing的对象。如同ours是 ours是compelling的对象 

平行结构非常清晰。

今天这题也是做错了 选了E
关于为什么have been错误，楼上的楼上说的很清楚啦

还有一个点 特别重要！  就是 as they are 的they are  必须补出
因为此时前后的时态发生变化了，谓语动词必须补出，以示不同

一个是were , 一个是are ，
两个谓语动词的时态不一样。 如果后面的are 不补出的话，就是认为时态和前面一致了

晓嘉听话

对对对！Mahattan里面有这个语法点，如果时态不一致必须补全。
