prep1-132 问题依旧

这个题已经深深的难过我很多遍了,每次看每次都有新疑问,刚刚看了prep讨论帖里的解释,觉得依然不能说服我,在这里再次贴出,恳请大家讨论

132.       (31556-!-item-!-188;#058&004545)

 

A recent review of pay scales indicates that CEO's now earn an average of 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, compared to a ratio of 42 times in 1980.

 

(A) that CEO's now earn an average of 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, compared to a ratio of 42 times

(B) that, on average, CEO's now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, a ratio that compares to 42 times

(C) that, on average, CEO's now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, as compared to 42 times their pay, the ratio

(D) CEO's who now earn on average 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, as compared to 42 times their pay, the ratio

(E) CEO's now earning an average of 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, compared to the ratio of 42 times

 

以下是prep解释: 

句子结构:A recent review… indicates that…, CEO’S earn…, as compared to…

主语是review,谓语是indicates,后跟that引导的宾语从句说明indicate的内容,宾语从句的主语是CEO’s,谓语是earn,宾语是419 times the pay of blue-collar workers,后跟比较结构as compared to…the ratio42 times their pay的同位语。

我的疑问1as compared to中,as是做什么的

疑问2prep对于C选项的解释是

(C) 正确,as compared to比较结构,419 times the pay42 times their pay比较,the ratio…是同位语。

那么也就是认为比较的是宾语了,也就是说42 times the pay是一个整体,作宾语。那么42 times是做什么成分的,我觉得只能是做形容词了,如果是形容词的话,ratio又怎么能和一个形容词同位呢?如果可以的话,那么B唯一的错误就是that compares to 应该改成compared to了吧

steve66说“the ratio作为一个概括性名词,指代前面的比例关系,没问题”。可以这样理解吗?请高手解答

 

疑问3http://forum.chasedream.com/dispbbs.asp?BoardID=23&replyID=2926362&id=324346&skin=0中,外国人理解

choice b is badly worded: 'compares to 42 times in 1980' seems to say that, on forty-two different occasions in 1980, the ceo:blue-collar ratio reached 419:1. this is not what we are trying to say.

这个有说服力吗?我怎么觉得这个有点牵强

4:还有另外一个帖子http://forum.chasedream.com/dispbbs.asp?BoardID=23&replyID=3014953&id=335357&skin=0

minirainbow说:

times+the+N or times as adj/adv as

times不能加more ... than

 

这个我觉得是不对的,倍数后面可以加比较级的。引用steve66对倍数比较用法的总结

 

搜了一些倍数表达的资料,看看是不是符合下面第3)个用法;

      1)、倍数+形容词/副词比较级+than
  The girl is ten times cleverer than her brother.
  2)、倍数+as+形容词/副词/(名词)+as
  His apartment is three times as large as that of mine. Americans eat twice as much protein as they actually need every day.
  3)、倍数+名词
  The sun is many times the size of the moon.
  4)、动词+倍数
  The pants have shortened two times since they were bought.
  5)、动词+by+数词/百分比/倍数
   

 

最主要的问题就是第一个,as compared中as 的用法,希望大家给予启发,谢谢了

up 我也想问C中as是做什么功能,众所周知,as的用法无非三种:as+n;as +状语从句;表达动作相似性。那么这里as到底是哪个功能?感觉一个都不是啊。

as compared with/to,固定短语,和...比较。
42 times是名词,名词修饰名词也是可以的。
