According to a 1996 survey by the National Association of College and University Business Officers, more than three times as many independent institutions of higher education charge tuition and fees of under $8,000 a year than those that charge over $16,000.
than those that charge
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。
我开始也觉得应该是比较机构,所以觉得E好一点。现在看来E选项as后面的和前面不对称
as many institutions charging under 8000 as those charging over 16000 (比较主体是institutions)
或者
as many institutions charge under 8000 as (institutions) charge over 16000 (比较主体是charge...)
