选项分析:
A选项:Unlike身后是商业(mainstream American businesses),而其主句的主语是失败率(the failure rate for businesses),两者不可比。
B选项:比较错误同选项(A)。
C选项:比较错误同选项(A)。
D选项:本选项的错误在于表语上,因为选项的主语是rate,是一个比率,而表语是half,在逻辑上比率只能是50%(50percent)而不能是一半,即,我们可以说:
the rate of mainstream American businesses failing is 50%.
但不能说:
the rate of mainstream American businesses failing is half.
E选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
我们可以说:
the rate of mainstream American businesses failing is 50%.
但不能说:
the rate of mainstream American businesses failing is half.
