1. that allow no hunting没错, new jersey deer population也没有含义模糊,A答案错在with的修饰对象错误. 应该是deer population with no predators and with expanses of green suburban, 而不是wildlife officials有这些东西.

而且A的with结构不平行.应该是with no... and with...

2.的确是省略了部分.不过three-quarters是形容词,所以省略的应该是(the population of the state) a decade ago.
