这个选项中我觉得，Comparable to the size of Great Britain是正确的。毕竟如果不用size，意思没有一点重叠，这里也就没什么可比性了。这里主要问题应该是 only four million in population不地道，应该用a population of only four million people，是of而不是in。 同时这里的many无所指。population是指人口、全体居民，是一个集合名词，没什么many不many的。

D中的and many后面是个句子，但是前面only four million in population是个短语，无法形成并列 此题考的主要是平行，laos has a and a

1. 4 million in population 不地道，应为 a population of 4 million people. 2. many无所指：没有many population.

size和area重复

一种解释是 and的使用 disrupt meaning the use of and separates the whole sentence into two independent parts. but they are actually related.

从格局主次上来看，DE对比：and many are members是并列句，和主句一样重要，many of whom是从句，从属于主句，此处应为从属关系。

land area和size 冗余！！！！！many无所指

正式语体中不能直接用 many are members

* "comparable to the size of...", while not incorrect, is inferior to "comparable to that of..." i.e., it's better to compare a land area to another land area (that of...) than to the somewhat ambiguous "size". the more important reasons: * "4 million in population" is not idiomatic. * it's not clear to what "many" refers. * "and" is an inappropriate transition; it suggests that there is no essential connection between "many..." and the previous mention of population. - this is hard to think about at first, because this is the way it's done in spoken language. for instance: spoken language: there were 50 women, and many of them were brunettes. --> this is considered incorrect in written language. written language: there were 50 women, many of whom were brunettes.

and 和前面哪个并列，原句并没有要表达这个并列

only four million in population不地道，应该用a population of only four million people 同时这里的many无所指。many refers to population?
