1。A用pay 和workers相比较，错。
2。B比较简洁，而且D中的SO指代什么呢？
3。logging 与surface fire并列，改成定从之后修饰对象更明确。
4。D改变了原句重心。原句重点在于4 million to 6 million of the 100 million votes cast were not counted，而不是voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems at polling places。

我也刚做完，仅个人见解。感谢更正。

非常感谢，茅塞顿开，另外请问如果在GWD1-Q16当中有一个答案是which is greater than和正确答案a greater proportion than比较的话，哪一个更好呢？

Soaring television costs accounted for more than half the spending in the presidential campaign of 1992, a greater proportion than it was in any previous election.

A.    a greater proportion than it was
B.    a greater proportion than
C.    a greater proportion than they have been
D.    which is greater than was so
E.    which is greater than it has been
把题贴上来了,我想用which的缺点应该是指代不明，which一般指代前面最靠近的名字，那么就是the spending 而不是proportion.解决问题的方法就是像答案那样重复所指代的名词。
