were as disturbing to his own time as they are

2) 比较的对象要概念对等, 正确, were as disturbing to his own time as they are compelling for ours表明是过去的情况和
现在的情况相对比, 符合逻辑意思; 比较双方概念对等,两个句子powerful style and his choices
were disturbing to his own time和they are compelling for ours进行比较
they are不能省略,因为as/as比较时,时态一致才可以省略谓语动词。
还原以后的结构:Thomas Eakins' powerful style and his choices were as disturbing to his own time as they ARE compelling for ours. 必须补充出谓语动词are
