一樣是PP3的

Due to poaching and increased cultivation in their native habitats, researchers have determined that there are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild, and that these leopards are thus many times as rare as China’s giant pandas.
(B) Due to there are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild, researchers have determined, making them many times more rare than
(C) There are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild due to poaching and increased cultivation in their native habitats, researchers have determined, which makes the leopards many times more rare compared to
(D) Researchers have determined that, because of being poached and increased cultivation in their native habitats, there are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild, thus making them many more times as rare as
(E) Researchers have determined that, because of poaching and increased cultivation in their native habitats, there are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild, and that these leopards are thus many times as rare as

答案是(E)
這一題考點就我理解是
(1)修飾對象不清楚: making them......
(2)代名詞:making "them"指誰不清楚
(3)redundancy: many times more rare compared to; many times more rare than
請大家幫我補充

另外
正確答案(E)
"because of"引導的子句中先提到"their native habitats"
緊接著的主要字句以"there are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards"
前面的"thier"應該就是指後面的"Arabian leopards"
可是這樣的句型可以嗎?
主要字句不是以要代替的主詞開頭
不會造成代名詞不清楚嗎?(因為前面還有researchers)

I think separating the whole setence into logical segments would be nice.
To see 'because of being poached and increased cultivation in their native habitats, there are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild' as a logical sub-sentence from the whole.
So,The 'their' refers to 'leopards' would be proper.

一樣是PP3的

Due to poaching and increased cultivation in their native habitats, researchers have determined that there are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild, and that these leopards are thus many times as rare as China’s giant pandas.
researcher是主要子句主詞
主次要文法結構謬誤
且their會代到研究者

(B) Due to there are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild, researchers have determined, making them many times more rare than
狀況同A
且researchers have determined句義及結構都謬誤
making them非慣用
"AL少於100隻"這件事無法做動作
不可能去"使"她們比...稀少

(C) There are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild due to poaching and increased cultivation in their native habitats, researchers have determined, which makes the leopards many times more rare compared to
研究者研判應放句首
否則會產生modifier problem
which代錯人
研究者不會使L稀少

(D) Researchers have determined that, because of being poached and increased cultivation in their native habitats, there are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild, thus making them many more times as rare as
後面thus making緊接於there are句後面
串錯因果

(E) Researchers have determined that, because of poaching and increased cultivation in their native habitats, there are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild, and that these leopards are thus many times as rare as
研究者研判
由於兩項原因造成兩種狀況
1.AL少於100支
且2.AL比熊貓稀少好幾倍
正解


答案是(E)
這一題考點就我理解是
(1)修飾對象不清楚: making them......
句意謬誤且非慣用 跟修飾對象無關
一個狀態不會使L變少

(2)代名詞:making "them"指誰不清楚
不重要

(3)redundancy: many times more rare compared to; many times more rare than

不會
算是脫節的一種慣用法

感謝兩位高手的指點阿
謝謝謝謝
等了好久捏

[vantreal]

可是我做到的(E)和本帖的(E) 有點出入.

(E) Researchers have determined that, because of poaching and increased cultivation in their native habitats, there are fewer than 100 Arabian leopards left in the wild, and that these leopards are thus many times more rare than

答案也還是(E),
難道說as rare as 和 more rare than 文法上皆OK,
句意在這就不用太在乎了嗎?

[dibert8]

more...than 和 as...as 意思應該都講得過去.

Mary earns a wage twice more than John does.
Mary earns a wage twice as much as John does.

This rope is many times shorter than that one.
This rope is many times as short as that one.
