题目分析：
略
选项分析：
A选项：Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。比较对象是this year和last year，即，两个年份。
B选项：rise表达了“上升”的意思，而higher表示更高。在逻辑上，rise的结果一定是“使得某物higher”，因此，rise或higher只能存在一个，higher赘余；
另外，higher…than…是习惯用语，higher…over…是不正确的。
C选项：比较对象不对等。比较两个年份的价格在本题中也是可以的，但是，last year's在than的身前无法找到平行对象，可以改为： this year's heating-oil prices are higher than last year's prices.
D选项：higher…over…习惯用语错误同(B)。
E选项：比较对象错误同(C)；expect身后不能用宾语从句，而应该用不定式。这点考查了“不定式和从句的区别”。
（转 存档）这题我扒了国内国外很多解释，最后还是同意RON解释的。
RON觉得，“Heating-oil prices are expected to be higher this year than last”跟“Prices at the producer level are only 1.3 percent higher now than a year ago”，都是省略了（they were），省略了之后 aren't necessarily faulty，也就是省略不省略都可以接受。比较对象是两个时间段的价格，但不是 those of last year，因为要跟前面的句式保持平行，所以是they were。
比前年的价格多了5 元 5 yuan more than the prices were last year
