问题 The following questions present a sentence, part of which or all of which is underlined. Beneath the sentence, you will find five ways of phrasing the underlined part. The first of these repeats the original; the other four are different. If you think the original is best, choose the first answer; otherwise choose one of the others.
   These questions test correctness and effectiveness of expression. In choosing your answer, follow the requirements of standard written English; that is, pay attention to grammar, choice of words, and sentence construction. Choose the answer that produces the most effective sentence; this answer should be clear and exact, without awkwardness, ambiguity, redundancy, or grammatical error. [br] Hip dysplasia is more common among German shepherds than dogs of other breeds.

选项 A、than
B、than is so of
C、compared to
D、in comparison with
E、than among

答案 E

解析 The idiomatic construction used here is "more common among x than among y," as in answer E. Answer A leaves open the illogical possibility that hip dysplasia among German shepherds is a more common phenomenon than the existence of other breeds of dogs. B lacks parallelism, and C and D are unidiomatic.
