※ 引述《brilange (~~)》之銘言： : A recent national studu of the public schools shows that "there are now : one microcomputer for every thirty-two pupils, four times as many than : there were" four years ago. : A)如題目 : B) there is now one microcomputer for every thirty-two pupils, as many than : there were : C) there is now one microcomputer for every thirty-two pupils, as many as : there were : D) every thirty-two pupils now have one microcomputer, four times as many : than there were : E) every thirty-two pupils now has one microcomputer, four times as many as : 此題CD網友分享答案為(C) : 想請教是否有高手可以針對C選項最後的"there were"做解釋嗎？？謝謝～～ : 看到as many than我就先刪了Ａ,Ｂ,Ｄ這三個選項 : 最後就在Ｃ跟Ｅ這兩選項做抉擇～～ : 但我覺得Ｃ選項的there were怪怪的～～ : 前面是there is 後面是否也是接there was?? : 還懇請個位高手指教！！謝謝這應該是以前大全的題目吧，也就是ETS時代的考題，現在考試機構換啦，沒事不要作舊題，不過還是手癢解一下好了，先列出當年阿六仔詢問ETS的回信如下: In the sentence, the word "microcomputers" is omitted as understood after "four times as many." Since the plural noun "microcomputers" is the implied subject of the verb, the verb must be plural (were) and not singular (was). 其實從這裡可以看出，看起來第二句還原應該是 there were microcomputers for pupils four years ago. 我覺得大陸人太著重在後句一定也要寫成比例的寫法，但是基本上句子像上面這樣寫就可以表達兩個時期的比例關係 -- A兔GMAT作戰中心 http://tw.myblog.yahoo.com/tootoo5478/ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 221.120.68.204
