from the accident at Three Mile Island may prove even more deterring to the nuclear industry than political opposition is
from the accident at Three Mile Island may prove to be even more serious a deterrent to the nuclear industry than political opposition
from the accident at Three Mile Island may prove to be an even more serious deterrent to the nuclear industry than political opposition

1a. 用prove to be X,重复的部分是be动词。
- Uncertainties may prove to be a more serious deterrent to the nuclear industry than is political opposition may (be)
1b. 用prove X,重复的部分是may (prove省略掉了),或者prove (第二次出现用does指代)
- Uncertainties may prove a more serious deterrent to the nuclear industry than political opposition may (prove)
- Uncertainties may prove a more serious deterrent to the nuclear industry than political opposition does (prove)
考点2:动词ing形式是adj还是noun???
及物动词的ing形式是不能作adj的!!!deter是vt,只能作动名词。deterrent effect才是正确形式,deterring effect是错的!!!

verb and requires a direct object
比较题是否要把beV/助V补回来,要看比较是否模糊
e.g. I know more about Shakespeare than my brother (X)
如果不把助动词加回来会有两种意思,一种是我比我哥更懂S,另一种是相对于我哥来说我更懂S
应改为
I know more about Shakespeare than my brother does
or
I know more about Shakespeare than does my brother
(助动词放前后都可以)
2.简洁表达,even more serious a deterrent不如an even more serious deterrent读起来明白,而且前者会产生歧义,不仅是一个a deterrent,还可以是其他东西?B错
3.Diction,清晰表达,Furthermore, the sentence would be clearer if it said resulting from,ABC相对更差

4.动词,deterring to the nuclear industry 用法错误,deter是及物动词,应该直接接名词,AE错
A:than political opposition is, is有没有相对应的be动
ABC: 用from而不是result from是不好
BCE: 比较有歧义。为了消除歧义,要把prove后面的to be补出来,这样policition opposition可以加is
要用is,前面就得有sth be这个结构,只剩D了
要用is,前面就得有sth be这个结构,只剩D了
E,prove even more deterring to the nuclear industry than political opposition会引起歧义:更阻碍核能行业比起阻碍政治反对。
A:than political opposition is, is有没有相对应的be动词对应,没有,直接排除
B, C, E:to the nuclear industry than political opposition, 有歧义。
Financial uncertainties prove more deterring to the nuclear industry than financial uncertainties prove deterring to political opposition
还是Financial uncertainties prove more deterring to the nuclear industry than political opposition prove deterring to the nuclear industry
D: than is political opposition, is和前面的be对应,平行。所以对。
while prove does not have to be followed by to be, here to be is required for parallelism with political opposition is.
