Despite recent increases in sales and cash flow that have propelled automobile companies' common stocks to new highs, several industry analysts expect automakers, in order to conserve cash, to set dividends more conservatively than they were
to set dividends more conservatively than they were
to set dividends more conservatively than they have been
to be more conservative than they have been in setting dividends
that they will be more conservative than they were in setting dividends
that they will be more conservative than they have been to set dividends
题目分析：
略。
选项分析：
A选项：抛开插入语 in order to conserve cash，本选项主干为：
several industry analysts expect automakers to set dividends more conservatively than they were
在逻辑上，需要比较的对象应为“预期中的制造商的派放股利行为”和“制造商曾经的派放股利行为”。因此，than身后应改为than they have done。
B选项：本选项错误同(A)。
C选项：Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
D选项：从句that they will be more conservative需改为不定式短语to be more conservative。这点考查了不定式和从句的区别。用之于本题，由于发生这种变化的部分为expect的宾语的补足语，所以应根据expect的约束力判断。显然地，expect的约束力较强，宾补需用不定式的形式。
E选项：本选项错误同(D)。
简单题！！错！
错选a
考察：语意，比较对等
前：expect 的东西应该是行为更加保守conservative，c直接加expect+to be more conservative than they have been in doing..语意连贯，且关系词临近。
相比“expect to set dividends more conservatively” 期望直接加set股息，偏离意思。------->expect也是要遵循临近原则，后面直接加期望的动作，即变得更加保守
后：比较动词对等：to set dividendshave done/do，而不是been/were！！！！！！“be more conservativethan they have been“
