[StephenWan (Final Fortune)]

When drive-ins wew at the hight of their popularity in the late 1950s,

some 4,000 existed in the United States, but today there are less than
                                                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
one-quarter that many.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

A:there are less than one-quarter that many.

B:there are fewer than one-quarter as many.

C:there are fewer than one-quarter of that amount.

D:the number is less than one-quarter the amount.

E:it is less than one-quarter of that amount.



























Ans:B

請高手幫忙!!  另外小弟不太懂為何as many可以單獨存在並留在巨尾.

感激不盡!!

推 LoveDior:C--> redundancy
→ StephenWan:感恩! 不過可否解釋B的文法架構 ^^
推 LoveDior:fewer than one-quarter as many (省略in the US)
推 LoveDior:不確定...可是看完題目直覺就是B <--它最順 XD
→ StephenWan:恩恩~謝謝你的回答~~我在想想看有沒有更好的解釋~~ ^^
推 surfingdream:這題其實蠻難選對的,GWD解答給C,來欣也給C
→ surfingdream:一般看到B都會覺得最後面比較不完整...
→ surfingdream:XY十三套的詳解是寫說C最好把amount改成number
→ surfingdream:因為amount修飾不可數。用刪去法得到B吧
→ surfingdream:這題讓我們又多學習到,GMAC允許這樣的省略比較
→ StephenWan:感謝各位的回答~~~
推 tootoobenee:Stephen,我已經把我的看法回到你信箱了,我原來也選C
→ StephenWan:感謝兔大!但小弟還沒收到@@" 如果是系統有問題不知可不
→ StephenWan:可以寄到小弟EMAIL:[e-mail]  ^^
