than are charging
than to charge
as charge
as those charging
题目分析:
本题考查“比较”的知识点。首先,表示比较时,as…as…和more…than…均可以。例如,我们可以说:three times as many as,也可以说:three times more than(当然,这两者表示倍数不同)。但是,as必须和as搭配,more必须和than搭配,不能混搭。由于本题已经讲过了more than three times as many,所以划线部分必须以as开头。排除(A)(B)(C)。这道题目的意思是:收取学费少于8000每年的高等教育机构是超过三倍于收取超过16000每年的学费的机构的。由于as many as中间是一个行为,即,independent institutions of higher education charge tuition and fees,因此本题的对比对象应为两个收费行为,as身后应该用动词charge over $16,000,不能比较机构数(those charging over $16,000)。
选项分析:
略。
More people walk than drive in New York.比较的是walk和drive,不能改成than those driving,those driving没有平行对象,除非改成There are more people walking than those driving.
more than three times as many institutions charge 8000 as charge 16000,比较对象是charge 8000和charge 16000,改成as those charging会使 those charging找不到平行对象。
