Traffic safety officials predict that drivers will be as likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as they are the current one.

a为什么不能也看成是省略，就是省略了(drivers are likely to exceed) the current one

a为什么不能也看成是省略，就是省略了(drivers are likely to exceed) the current one

1.equally和as…as…均表示两者相等的含义，但是不能用equally…as…
2.整句话补全，就是Traffic safety officials predict that drivers will be as likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as they are （likely to exceed) the current one
3.be likely to do为习惯表达，不能用be likely that

把整句话补全，就是Traffic safety officials predict that drivers will be as likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as  they are （likely to exceed) the current one.

错选D。应该比的对象是“司机们将会有的情况”和“司机们现在的情况”，而不是和current one
likely表示其身后的事情的发生的概率较高，所以应该用不定式to do。

1. as... as = equally 不能同时一起用
2. be likely to do
3. 比较对象是：旧规下司机的情况和新规下司机的情况

省略的部分好难想到哦

还原一下as they are the current one?

1- likely to do固定结构，排除CD；
2- A 比较的是两个限速的要求，不是司机们总是爱超速这个事儿，比较对象错；
3- B 中Equally 和as 拼起来一个结构，看上去好有感觉的样子，其实是用来坑人的坑子，错；
选E

毕老师，as/than比较后面如果主语和谓语动词相同且谓语是否可以进行省略，也就是说即使没有补出“they are”，这道题也是成立的——as （they are likely to exceed）the current one? 谢谢。

请问 第二个 ‘as' 后面 是不是这样省略的：as they are (to exceed) the current one.

as..as 习惯用法，比较对象需要一致（都是习惯）

如果这句话用equally来说的话应该怎么说呢～

这道题我首先排除了 equally，然后在D和E之间，认为as they are the current one中的one指的应该是speed limit，然后根据逻辑论元 ，司机们怎么可能是限速呢，所以就把D干掉了。。。
至于likely to do，我想起课上讲的，likehood of doing，可能性并不涉及状态的改变，所以不用to do，然后完美的错过了正确答案
请问老师，以上想法都哪里错了。。。

觉得“equally likely”的意思是说两个比率是一样的，“as likely”是带一个“最起码”的意思
完了，D有多余了一个“that”

这里比较的不是 the proposed speed limit和 the current one吗？如果把a选项中的equally去掉，会变成正确选项吗？drivers will be likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as the current one? 或者这样对吗: drivers will be to exceed the proposed speed limit as likely as the current one?
对于哪些可以省略，哪些不可以省略真的都晕了。

E的结尾是进行了省略吗，即as...as they are (likely to exceed) the current one？

想请问，这里的“the current one”是什么呢？同位语？总感觉不需要....这个词了

对啦
