GMAT语法 比较结构
GWD3-Q30:
Today’s technology allows manufacturers to make small cars more fuel-efficient now than at any time in their production history.
small cars more fuel-efficient now than at any time in their
small cars that are more fuel-efficient than they were at any time in their
small cars that are more fuel-efficient than those at any other time in
more fuel-efficient small cars than those at any other time in their
more fuel-efficient small cars now than at any time in
这种比较结构的题总是做不好 答案C我选了D
C选项中的those不会有歧义么?D那个直接修饰 比C用从句不是简单点么?

Those 不存在歧义问题...比较的对象是谁,它就指代谁(不像一般的代词 逻辑指代和语法规定的指代有时候不一样).倒是their有歧义问题(语法上可以指代cars或manufacturers)
而且最重要的是 D选项意思有问题,to make more fuel-efficient cars than those(指cars)
at any other time in their.这个more的修饰对象有歧义:可以认为more 修饰的是cars ,指造更多的车(make more cars);more也可以修饰fuel-efficient.而C选项用了一个GMAT规定上很繁琐的定语从句很好的回避了此类歧义(一般来说,若同时出现fuel-efficient cars 和cars that are fuel-efficient时候,认为后者啰嗦 所以不选.而此题为了避免歧义,只能用后者.),表明more不是修饰cars 而是修饰 fuel-efficient 的.
