Although fruit can no longer grow once it is picked, it continues for some time to respire, taking in oxygen and giving off carbon dioxide, similar to the way human beings breathe.
(A) similar to the way human beings breathe
(B) similarly to human beings who are breathing
(C) just like the breathing of human beings
(D) as human beings when breathing
(E) just as human beings do when they breathe

Key: E。为什么不是C 呢？C, E 有什么区别吗，我觉得他们很像，请高手指点

c is awkward, and E is more simple and straightforward.

我怎么看不出来，我在C E 之间犹豫了很久，最后还是选错了。

记住：A do (does) sth , just as B do (does) 句型。

C是一个名词，而E是一个动作。taking in oxygen and giving off carbon dioxide是一个动作，所以E更matchable.

tina,

烦请贴题的时候注明题号，便于后人查找和讨论。谢谢！

这道题比较的是respire 和human being的呼吸的动作。breathing 和respire不对称啊。所以要在E中用do来和respire比较。

C：just like the breathing of human beings

(E) just as human beings do when they breathe
