According to a survey of graduating medical students conducted by the Association of
American Medical Colleges, minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than
are other graduates in planning to practice in socioeconomically deprived areas.
A. minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than are other graduates in
planning to practice
B. minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than other graduates who
plan on practicing
C. minority graduates are nearly four times as likely as other graduates to plan on
practicing
D. it is nearly four times more likely that minority graduates rather than other
graduates will plan to practice
E. it is nearly four times as likely for minority graduates than other graduates to plan
to practice

這一題最後我在猶豫要選A還是D
結果我選了D
A為什麼比D好呢？

答案不是C 嗎??? 應該是C 吧

[hughes0305]

這題強調在於比較 minority graduates 與 other graduates
(D)用了一個錯誤是 more....rather than, 這種用法在ETS中是不好的, 應該用more...than即可
(A)使用be likely ...in, 是非慣用的, 正確用法是be likely "to"
