Actually, D) compares "land area" with "size of Great Britain"; therefore it is incorrect. The elements being compared must be logically and structurally paralleled.作者: bettytons 时间: 2010-7-5 22:32
我的理解是:E中的结构更利于句子意思的理解,Laos has a land area *****, and a population of ****,这样的结构更利于理解,看来GMAC中句子逻辑和结构是第一位,太过于抠语法细节可能不大利于做题作者: painsper 时间: 2010-7-8 06:47
同意LZ 的观点, 从句的 laos has 和主句一样省略, 所以从句的主要强调是有400 万人
口(主干重心), 然后在补充提到人口还有许多在山区(次要修饰作用)。。
