OG 187

187. In one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War, fought at Sharpsburg, Maryland, on September 17, 1862, four times as many Americans were killed as would later be killed on the beaches of Normandy during D-Day.

(A) Americans were killed as

(B) Americans were killed than

(C) Americans were killed than those who

(D) more Americans were killed as there

(E) more Americans were killed as those who

请问如果E中把more去掉是不是对呢.OG说those who "is a wordy intrusion"请问这里为什么不需要补出代词呢.

1.比较前后的比较物应尽可能形式对称

2.other把之前的比较物从所从属的范围内排除

3.有-er或more + adj.，则than不可少；比较级+as必错

楼主可不可以介绍一下比较三原则啊. 我碰到比较就头痛.

angelavivi

后一个as就有代替代词的作用。

those who 为什么wordy呢？

who这里即便成立也是引导从句用，它占了一个动词，根据比较三原则，than前后结构对称，those的谓语呢？
