题目分析:
本题中我们可以发现平行制造者less than,其连接的两者需要“可比”。本题中对比的内容显然是“Lotte Jacobi在纽约”和“Lotte Jacobi曾经在德国”,因此(A)(B)(D)(E)的比较对象均是不正确的(如果时态不同,则不能省略动词),答案为(C)。
选项分析:
略
She was less successful after she emigrated to New York than she had been in her native Germany.
黑体是前半句的状语, than 后面省略了successful, 但没省谓语 had been, 因与前半句谓语不同,不省是为了表明状态的先后
实际应是:
she was less successful (after she emigrated to New York) than she had been (successful) (in her native Germany).
由此更可以看出比较的不是状语,而是成功的程度,也就是全句,全句所要表达的意思。
