答案是E,可是E的比较没有在最后补出助动词阿，造成了歧义阿

I eat more rice than Tom does就需要补出助动词，如果这个题不补的话，有女人用女人比用荷尔蒙多的歧义呀

momohe

当不会产生歧义的时候, 动词可以省略的.

lulutingyu

这个题省略了，会有歧义阿

WesternCder

我觉得有没有歧义主要是看理解出来的意思通不通~也就是说要make sense~这个如果按照LZ的理解就是 女人用荷尔蒙比用女人多， 可是LZ要怎么看待这句话想表达的含义呢？这种完全不会理解错误的情况下就可以省略动词了~
其实GMAT很多问题都不能抠的太死，很多NN都说过SC的答案是比出来的，尽管正确答案也未必是最优的那一个~

我查过相关 语法，这个是会 产生 歧义 是不是这种题要结合语义的 有些可省有些 不可以？

可是OG12里有个拔犀牛角的，这样参观者就不会来参观的题目，里面的they就是因为有指代”人的角“而排除了一个选项，如果按逻辑来的话，人怎么可能长角呢。。。？按这个道理，og的解释也是错的了。。
