小于400只 与 一小部分 想表达的意思基本相同
肯定是说小于400只犀牛活下来 或 犀牛占了一小部分 不可能说 小于400只犀牛占了一小部分。前后意思有重复
然后就是less 修饰问题 选D
B: Usage of verb-ing modifier surviving on… conveys that there are certain number of Sumatran rhinos that survive in the mentioned peninsula and islands and that these rhinos occupy a small portion of their original range. This opens up the possibility that these Rhinos could be elsewhere too. However, we know from the meaning analysis that the original sentence intends to convey that the Sumatran Rhinos exist only in the mentioned places and not anywhere else.
①ABE的错误在于fewer和less的用法！！！竟然没有注意到！！！
②先occupy再survive
除了从逻辑上推 还要看看细节部分的错误‘
我以为是 先活下去 再占 应该是 占据了 才活了下来........ 先后顺序弄错了 错选E
AB选项：用less than就被排除了，因为less 是little的比较级，表示不可数名词之间的比较关系；
A选项：they 指代不明确
C选项：对比对象不对等
E选项：less than有问题
一定要注意less和fewer修饰不可数可数的区别。
一直纠结到底是occupy做伴随状语还是survive作伴随状语，没有注意less和few的区别
从主语的语义来看 还是occupy做伴随更好
