Providing initial evidence that airport are a larger source of pollution than they were once believed to be, environmentalists in Chicago report that the total amount of pollutant emitted annually by vehicles at O'Hare International Airport is twice as much as that which is being emitted annually by all motor vehicles in the Chicago metropolitan area.
还有个类似的句子 Providing initial evidence that airports are a larger source of pollution than they were once believed to be, environmentalists in Chicago report that the total amount of pollutant emitted annually by vehicles at O’Hare International Airport is twice as much as that which is being emitted annually by all motor vehicles in the Chicago metropolitan area. A. as much as that which is being emitted annually by all B. as much annually as is emitted by the C. as much compared to what is annually emitted by all D. that emitted annually by all E. that emitted annually compared to the B选项(虽然不是正确选项)
个人的一点见解 1句,是不同状态下的对比,是说this production 可能in a modern theater 也是与the original production 接近。是同一物体两种状态的比较。所以要有动词is 如果去掉就完全不对了。
2句,B选项结构对,但比较对象错了。逻辑意思就错了,如果代入后句的话,就变成了the total amount of pollutant emitted annually by vehicles at O’Hare International Airport is emitted by the all motor vehicles in the Chicago metropolitan area。
