Q32:

To develop more accurate population forecasts, demographers have to know a great deal more than now about the social and economic determinants of fertility.

A.   have to know a great deal more than now about the social and economic

B.   have to know a great deal more than they do now about the social and economical

C.   would have to know a great deal more than they do now about the social and economical

D.   would have to know a great deal more than they do now about the social and economic

E.    would have to know a great deal more than now about the social and economical

(1)   than now 像than ever, than before, than ever before 一样，表达比较的简洁，

(2)   由文中now 可知，文章应该用虚拟语气would have to 比较的合适，

(3)   but I think that using economic is much better than using economical, because the “economical” means frugal.

如果是那样的话，就没有正确的答案，也许只有最优的答案，那样的话，就选(E)???晕！
