There are hopeful signs that we are shifting away from our heavy reliance on fossil fuels: more than ten times as much energy is generated through wind power now than it was in 1990.

(A) generated through wind power now than it was
(B) generated through wind power now as it was
(C) generated through wind power now as was the case
(D) now generated through wind power as it was
(E) now generated through wind power than was the case


根據莫杯杯的筆記：
it指同一個；one指同類中任意一個；that指同類中指定的另一個

這題如果代名詞改成that或one，是否可行？感覺換成that應該可以~





答案是(C)

more than ten times as much energy is generated 主詞是 energy (比較級的被動句型)

A lawyer earns more than ten times as much money as does a police officer.
More than ten times as much money is earned by a lawyer as by a police officer.

John earns more than ten times as much money now as he did in 1997.
More than ten times as much money is earned (by John) now as was the case in 1997.
因此 ETS 的標準句型就長這樣.
用 as was that in 1997 可能會有指代的問題: that = money? xx times as much money? 後者 = the case; 所以用 the case 來規避指代歧異.

case當situation解 所以實際上並非代單一名詞 附上ONGMAN解釋
situation [countable usually singular] a situation that exists, especially as it affects a particular person or group
