There is a widespread belief in the United States and Western Europe that young people have a smaller commitment to work and a career than their parents and grandparents and that the source of the change lies in the collapse of the "work ethic."
a smaller commitment to work and a career than their parents and grandparents
less of a commitment to work and a career than their parents and grandparents
a smaller commitment to work and a career than that of their parents and grandparents
less of a commitment to work and a career than their parents and grandparents had
a lessening of the commitment to work and a career that their parents and grandparents had
还没有题目讲解（毕出老师会陆续发布对官方考题的解读，请保持关注）。
句子的逻辑意思是“young people现在比他们parents and grandparents过去对work and career有更少的commitment”，即前后比较的对象是young people和parents and grandparents，而grandparents有commitment是在过去，因此两者的谓语动词需明确写出来，不能省略。
从比较对象出发，排除C；从比较的时态出发，排除A/B；
英语中smaller用于修饰具体的事物，less用于修饰抽象的事物。由此排除A/C；E：a lessening of 表示减少的，用在此不合理，排除E；D：less of “较少的”，可用于表示比较。
