推 mimipudding:at least就是至少的意思，用half the chance or less 03/12 07:18
→ mimipudding:就變得redundancy了.....光憑這點就可以刪掉選項... 03/12 07:19
推 treehold:題目做多的時候這個答案基本上是秒殺的 不清晰也囉嗦 03/12 12:15
→ treehold:就算加上do 也是會被秒殺的 03/12 12:17
言簡意賅後是這樣子的
正確選項
People who exercise actively are at least 50% less likely than those
who never exercise to die of a heart attack.
混淆選項
People who exercise actively have half the chance, or less, of dying of
a heart attack than those who never exercise (do).

疑問之處如下
1. 混淆選項的括號之處是否該補出來，變成
A have half the chance of ... ... than B do ??
2. 正確選項的 at least 50% less likely than 中文是否該解釋為
至少比你低50%，所以是 60, 70, 80% 的更低機率？
3. 混淆選項的 half the chance, or less 語意上是否有曖昧之處
比一半更低(less than half)，那揪境是字面上的40% 還是邏輯上的80% ??
這個選項可以從這方面排除嗎？
4. 抑或是我根本想太多的 half the chance, or less 根本在語法上就有誤？
