Africa's black rhino population in the mid-1970's numbered about 20,000, ten times the estimated
population of 2,000 in 1997.
(A) the estimated population

(C) more than the population's estimated amount

比如本题可以说C用法错了么？

倍数后可以加more than，C中ten times more than 这个点没错
是不是错在不简洁，或者a中population比population更平行啊？

CHECKED ON Yankee - one of the reasons 'twice more expensive than' is not good English is that 'twice more expensive than' could logically be interpreted to mean 'three times as expensive as'.

ten times 直接加名词，很简洁啊。c比较awkward了
