twice as many as the increase of
题目分析:
本题涉及到了较多比较的用法。注意本题的含义,这里的double是make twice as great(造成两倍的)的意思,也就是“使increase/growth两倍”,所以本题直译过来是“今年的人数造成了去年增长人数两倍的增长”。因此,严格来讲,并不是“比较”the number of people和“去年的增长”,而是the number of people发出了“造成两倍”这个动作。
选项分析:
A选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
B选项:代词that of无指代对象。在逻辑上,that不能指代the number,the increase in previous year已经表达了去年的增长数字,再用number就赘余了。
C选项:double as much as the increase of需改为double the increase of。这是因为,当“非数字物体(即,这个名词本身没有纯粹的数字概念,例如dogs、cats等绝大多数名词)”比较时,我们通常会用double(twice) as much as或double(twice) as many as,例如:
twice as many dogs
double as much water
但是,当“数字”比较时,我们不能加as many或as much,例如:
twice the increase
double the decrease
显然地,增长和下降本身就是数字的概念。因此,不能用double as much as the increase of。
D选项:本选项错误同(C)。另外,由于the number是不可数名词,所以至少应该改为much。
E选项:本选项错误同(D)。
