132.
A recent review of pay scales indicates that CEO's now earn an average of 419 times more pay
than blue-collar workers, compared to a ratio of 42 times in 1980.
(A) that CEO's now earn an average of 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, compared to a
ratio of 42 times
(B) that, on average, CEO's now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, a ratio that
compares to 42 times
(C) that, on average, CEO's now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, as compared to 42
times their pay, the ratio
(D) CEO's who now earn on average 419 times more pay than blue-collar workers, as compared to
42 times their pay, the ratio
(E) CEO's now earning an average of 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, compared to the
ratio of 42 times
答案是C, 疑问是对B项的解释: compare to的比较对象不对等,前者419 times the pay of
blue-collar workers表达的是工资数,而后者42 times是比率。
a ratio 不是指代前面的419 times吗, 这样, 419 times compared to 42 times 没有错啊~
按解释理解, a ratio成指代419 times the pay of blue-collar workers了

ratio不是比率吗, 怎么能指419 times the pay of blue-collar workers.

这题是GWD1-Q7原题, 但是GWD上面讨论的答案是B.

B的明显问题是compare没有用被动

(B) that, on average, CEO's now earn 419 times the pay of blue-collar workers, a

ratio that
compares to 42 times

ratio是比例,419倍和42倍都是比例。

a ratio在这里是同位于解释前面的419倍,但是它不能同时又是42倍,一个比例只能是一个确定的

数值,所以B逻辑错。
