[求助]请教各位NN~OG原题~

According to a recent poll, owning and living in a freestanding house on its own land is still a goal of a majority of young adults, like that of earlier generations.

(A) like that of earlier generations

(B) as that for earlier generations

(C) just as earlier generations did

(D) as have earlier generations

(E) as it was of earlier generations

一直不能理解为什么（A）选项是错误的。

OG给出的官方解释是that没有指代对象。

可是我觉得这里的that可以指代goal的说

第一，A和前半句不对称。

第二, 这里面还有个时态的比较。

补全句子就是

owning and living in a freestanding house on its own land is still a goal of a majority of young adults, as owning and living in a freestanding house on its own land was a goal of earlier generations.
