A study (on couples' retirement transitions) found that women (who took new jobs after retiring from their primary careers) reported high marital satisfaction, more than when retiring completely.

这个句子我打括号的是修饰性的部分，可以略看，也就是说句子主干是:
A study found that women reported high marital satisfaction, more than...

more than 暗示这个题是考比较结构，比较结构中，要搞清楚比较对象和比较内容：
比较对象是两种women（退休后找工作和不找工作的），比较内容是marital satisfaction

more than出现在这个地方，说明是要找一个和前面的women who... 中的women对等的比较对象，也就是more than后面要加一类women

A. women 和when不能比较
B. women 和 if 不能比较
C. than 后面 those who retired 是一类女人，对。并且so可以指代前面很多内容，gmat中so的指代是很灵活的，通常情况下do it/this/that/those都是错的，要用do so才能对
D. which指代satisfaction，more就改变了句子愿意，原来more是指一种women比另一种women多，D里的more变成了more satisfaction，错
E. 同D
