compare to是把什么比喻成什么的意思，而compare with 才是同样的事物之间的比较

e为什么是错的阿，我不知道怎么翻译阿, 谢谢

hopelanxyn

the use of this in E is not correct,

since whether it refers to woolly adelgid or the whole sentence, this use can not be accepted in GMAT

据说这个用法是错误的，使用compare时，如果不是动作发出者(人)，必须用被动；

PREP答案选C

给的解释是这样的：

this is to be parrell with CEO's now ear 419 times the pay of blue collar workers, because "as compared to" requires parallell structure and expression. "their pay" parallells with "the pay of blue worker", and "the ratio" is added to introduce "in 1980" to avoid confusion.

我理解的B错的原因是：that，on average, CEO's now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, a ratio that compares to 42 times

a ratio 是前面划线部分的同位语，所以错误！！

请NN指点！

B 是错的  比较怎么能用主动呢   C就是被动的比较   没问题选C！

Choice B is very wrong to me.

It seems to say the comparision (419:1) was done 42 times in 1980.
