我觉得没有,因为compare这个动作是现在的,不可能在过去进行,因为当时还没有ceo目前的工资水平,所以无法比较

这道题我倾向于选a。

首先，根据that,排除 d, e.

然后，在a中，that CEO’s now earn an average of 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, compared to a ratio of 42 times ，这句话的意思是现在ceo平均比蓝领的多赚419倍的工资，就是说ceo平均工资是蓝领的420倍

b的意思则是说ceo平均工资是蓝领的419倍，这里存在一个改变了句意的问题。而句义是不可以随便改变的 。

最后，还有一个比较的问题CEO’s now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, 这里 ceo 是在和 pay of blue-collar workers作比较，所以错了。

7．A recent review of pay scales indicates that CEO’s now earn an average of 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, compared to a ratio of 42 times in 1980.

1. that CEO’s now earn an average of 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, compared to a ratio of 42 times
2. that, on average, CEO’s now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, a ratio that compares to 42 times
3. that, on average, CEO’s now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, as compared to 42 times their pay, the ratio
4. CEO’s who now earn on average 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, as compared to 42 times their pay, the ratio
5. CEO’s now earning an average of 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, compared to the ratio of 42 times

应该是B对，只有B可能，a ratio that同位语避免了别的选项（as） compared to找主语（review，CEOs，blue collar workers）的歧义 。

贴两个网上找到的句子，

CEOs Now Earn 419 Times The Pay Of Average Workers

Union workers earn an average of $155 (or 33 percent) more each week than non-union workers

我认为an average of 后接具体钱数比较好，象A接的是个倍数，意思表达感觉不清，an average of 419 times more pay ，pay是谁的pay/pay到底是多少。
