答案选A,我选C
我不明白一个to可以表示比较的意思吗？Just as one-third of bank customers still prefer human tellers to automatic teller machines
C中如果不是少了一个that是不是更好呢？
请NN帮忙解答，谢谢

这里的to不是表示比较的，而是prefer human tellers to ATM中的prefer...to...结构
just as是用来把三分之一的bank customers和traveller进行比较的。
C中as...as compared to是GMAT常见的捏造错误选项的手法，没有这样的用法，要么就是as...as, 要么就是compared to...

NN一语中的。 compare常用的两种结构：compare with/to比较结构，比较对象。
