题目分析：
本题中的比较词为better known than，在(A)(E)中，对比的两者为his plays和his short stories；在(B)(C)中，具有该关系的两者为“现在的plays”和“过去的短故事（he was）”；在(D)中，具有该关系的两者为Anton Chekhov和his short stories。在逻辑上，由于but后的语境的存在，我们知道，前半句需要描述的事件应该是“在以英语为母语的国家中，Anton Chekhov的戏剧（plays）比他的短故事（short stories）更加著名”。所以具有better known than关系的两者是his plays和his short stories，此两者需要在语法上保持平行，可以排除(B)(C)(D)。(A)选项中by far的意思是“到目前为止”，合理的位置应该是放在known的身后以修饰known，可以排除(A)，答案为(E)。
