prep2 7,8,9题，A错在哪里了呢？

不是太理解第三题的比较之间的关系，
The Environmental Protection Agency frequently puts mandatory controls on toxic substances that
present as little risk as one in a million chances to cause cancer.

(A) as little risk as one in a million chances to cause
(B) as little risk as one chance in a million of causing
(C) as little risk as one chance in a million that it will cause
(D) a risk as little as one chance in a million for causing
(E) a risk as little as one chance in a million for it to cause


as little risk as one chance in a million of causing，这里little risk和one chance in a million可以类比吗？

D中的 that 引导限定性定语从句，  the wrong answer (D) seems to imply that EACH country is somehow as 'varied' as EACH other country. That's not the intended meaning, which is that the SET of countries is varied

想请教第一道题选项D错误仅仅是因为不够简洁，可以去掉“that are”，还是如上面所说？不应该用非限制的吧？因为范围确实需要缩小啊。

谢谢！

as varied as是个和including一样的特例.A并不是限定性修饰，应该只能算是举例。范围不需要缩小，其实只是列举几个不同的国家而已。

苦逼的青年啊，我也如此，连错这三道，PREP07-1的后面30多道错了2个，立刻转到PREP07-2发现一开始的30多道错了10来个，一下子就蔫了~~~郁闷的

好巧啊，我也连错这三题，顶一下

再问一个小问题，第8题中，正确答案为过去完成时，但在题干中找不到“过去的过去”的暗示，且题干都是一般现在时，这样就造成了gap?似乎用一般过去时更符合语法？谢谢各位前辈赐教！
