e选项为什么不对a, perp笔记上解析的不是很清楚
只说了这个：(E)将Baikal和北美5大湖直接进行比较,概念不对等,应该是Baikal的水量和五大湖的水量进行比较， 从语法的角度呢？

一点个人见解~
首先要说的是，语法和语义一定是一致的，并不是两个独立开来看的东西。
这里E选项中More than部分从语法上看向后修饰主语，构成比较，然而比较对象不对等，这已经是一个足够的重大错误了；
如果说还有其他的话，就是主语Lake Baikal被两个修饰语夹在中间，一个向后修饰，一个向前修饰，这样的夹心修饰不大好。

考点:        句子结构（Grammatical Construction）
1)用to do结构表达目的更加有效,.
2)合理的布置修饰短成分的位置:当一个句子有较多修饰成分修饰主语时,应该将修饰成分合理的
分布在主语前后,常用的方法是:分词结构,主语,修饰成分1,修饰成分2,谓语……

仔细看还是可以看出来的。E的主句就是 贝加尔湖，无论如何不能和前面的比较。
