91. Like many self-taught artists, Perle Hessing did not begin to paint until she was well into middle age.

Like
As have
Just as with
Just like
As did
答案为A ，我认为从平行角度讲，ARTISTS 和HESSING 单复不同，而E ，AS DID 怎么错了，它后面省了NOT BEGIN TO ***，不行嘛？

(like jasper,larry, and other modern artists, )robort distained the use of realistic figuers in his paintings and sought instead a reduction****.
d: as jasper,larry, and other modern artists did,
which one to choose ? 答案为D。WHY？

liziyao：刚刚给你写完了一贴但没能发出，现重新再写！
除牛牛讲的外，上面两题的区别还在于：
1）. Like many self-taught artists,与 like jasper,larry, and other modern artists, 在时间上的不同。后一个，我们知道比较的是现在健在或已经去世的，当然可用did来作为谓语的替代，表示曾经发生的事情。但前一个，艺术家是指所有的，即过去、现在和将来。你想想是用did还是用will？
2）as did不通，应该用as。。。did才行

liziyao

tongxun;AS DID SOMEBODY 是对的，DID可以放在前也可以放在后，见LZMP192页E10-6

91. Like many self-taught artists, Perle Hessing did not begin to paint until she was well into middle age.  

Like  
As have  
Just as with  
Just like  
As did  

若去掉UNTIL***，E 是否就对了？

tongxun

as这词，若是as did/do sth，可以这么用，但as did sb， b did就不平行或对称了！
E中如前所述，去掉unlike也不对！

liziyao

居然还有这样的区别！？

tongxun

你可以翻一翻LZM的书，也可以再找找有关的题目。希望我没回答错误。另外，关于上述用法的讨论，我会再咨询一下我认识的英语博士，过两天我再发贴给你一个更准确的答复！
