According to public health officials, in 1998 Massachusetts became the first state in which more babies were born to women over the age of thirty than under it.
than
than they were
than had been born

题目分析：
本题可以比较的是两种年龄下发生的情况，所以(A)是正确的。(B)中的they were会让读者认为比较的是两个句子，即，more babies were born和they were，这在比较对象上不对等。(C)中under it修饰了born，逻辑意思荒谬：孩子们生下来时小于30岁。
有一个不是很理解的地方，希望老师帮忙解答一下。
我本来认为这种带比较性质的句子是需要补充省略的部分的，然后我以为full sentence长这样：more babies were born to women over the age of thirty than (those were born to women) under it.
但是后来我在曼哈顿里看到RON这样说：
no, you can't write the sentence like that.
but don't try to "fix" the sentences. the above sentence is incorrect for reasons that the gmat exam doesn't test, so it's not worth worrying about.
