She was less successful after she had emigrated to New York compared to her native Germany, photographer Lotte Jacobi nevertheless earned a small group of discerning admirers, and her photographs were eventually exhibited in prestigious galleries across the United States.
She was less successful after she had emigrated to New York compared to
Being less successful after she had emigrated to New York as compared to
Less successful after she emigrated to New York than she had been in
Although she was less successful after emigrating to New York when compared to
She had been less successful after emigrating to New York than in
题目分析：
本题中我们可以发现平行制造者less than，其连接的两者需要“可比”。本题中对比的内容显然是“Lotte Jacobi在纽约”和“Lotte Jacobi曾经在德国”，因此(A)(B)(D)(E)的比较对象均是不正确的（如果时态不同，则不能省略动词），答案为(C)。
选项分析：
略
compare with/to通常不接比较级，但也要有接比较级的情况。如：Minivans cost less and get better gas mileage, compared with most sport utility vehicles.
比较对象的问题：
A，She was less successful compared to Germany，人和国家比，错误
C，She was less successful as compared to Germany，人和国家比，错误
D，She was less successful when compared to Germany，人和国家比，错误
Less successful 【after she emigrated to New York】 than 【she had been in her native Germany】, photographer Lotte Jacobi nevertheless earned ……
【移居纽约后】不如【在她的家乡德国】成功，摄影师 Lotte Jacobi 还是赚到了……
As … as …
Compared to/with的正确用法：
Now 40 percent of the college students live off campus, compared to 10 percent, the ratio in 1990.
不能混用，如
More … as ×
As … than ×
More/less compared to
（She was ）less successful 。。。。Than she had been in
黑体是前半句的状语, than 后面省略了successful, 但没省谓语 had been, 因与前半句谓语不同，不省是为了表明状态的先后
实际应是：
she was less successful (after she emigrated to New York) than she had been (successful) (in her native Germany).
由此更可以看出比较的不是状语，而是成功的程度，也就是全句，全句所要表达的意思。
其次compare to的用法里没有when compare to 和 as compare to的用法， 所以 B，D排除了
Less than.....
C
伴随状语与主句语意有转折时，whereas/although/though等表转折的从属连接词不能省略，以免语意表达不清楚，转折的意思体现不出来。
C，她在纽约的时候不怎么成功，后来慢慢地成功了。主句里有一个nevertheless，做副词，表示虽然如此，这个词把转折的意思表达清楚了，所以伴随状语不再用表转折意思的连接副词。
