30

 An inventory equal to 90 days sales is as much as even(划线） the strongest businesses carry, and then only as away to anticipate higher prices or ensure against shortages.

A as much as even

B so much as even

C even so mush as

D even as much that

E eveb so much that

本题选A,但是这句话如何翻译呢？carry在这里是什么词性呢？还有后面的as a way to应该和前面的哪一部分连接呢?谢谢指教。

carry是備貨，就是動詞

我想本句可以改寫為 Even the strongest businesses carry an inventory as much as (equal to) 90 days sales, and then only as a way to .....

並且只作為一種作法....

as因為接n所以我理解為"作為"，而不是"當"。（如果是"當"，那應該接主詞和一整句話)

I omit "equal to" because it's redundant with "as much as".

個人想法，有錯請指正，謝謝！
