Because the Earth’s crust is more solid there and thus better able to transmit shock waves, an earthquake
of a given magnitude typically devastates an area 100 times greater in the eastern United States than it does in the West
.
选项
A、of a given magnitude typically devastates an area 100 times greater in the eastern United States than it does in the West
B、of a given magnitude will typically devastates 100 times the area if it occurs in the eastern United States instead of in the West
C、will typically devastates 100 times the area in the eastern United States than one of comparable magnitude occurring in the West
D、in the eastern United States will typically devastate an area 100 times greater than will a quake of comparable magnitude occurring in the West
E、that occurs in the eastern United States will typically devastate 100 times more area than if it occurred with comparable magnitude in the West
答案
D
解析
C中有一错误用法,即100 times an area…than的表达中,than属误用(可查阅比较中的数量增减的表达式)。而A、B、E中的it在指代上有逻辑错误:it从语法上讲显然应指代前面的an earthquake,当把an earthquake代入,就会产生这样一种情形:同一次地震在东部发生之后又再在西部发生。很明显,这有悖常理。而D用a quake of comparable magnitude表明一次同样数量级的地震,避免了逻辑矛盾,比较上也合乎逻辑,且than之后补出助动词will,整个结构清晰完整。
