the ones,前面有定冠词the,表明指代前面曾经提到过的具体某一些人,在这个题目里,the ones特指前面被大白鲨杀死的那seven people.逻辑上,他们不可能既被great white shark又被bee stings所杀

這裡the ones是another people的概念,語意上沒有問題。錯是錯在比較結構裡的another set要使用those,一般結構裡的another set才是用one/ones。

people可数 用few不用little 注意比较前后对等,前面是have been killed by...所以E错了,少了have been, B正确 虽然没有those或者people但是可以理解为承接了原文最开始的people

1. 首先fewer对了,比较C和E 2. E这里省略错了,被动语态 把系动词省略, 只留下done(killed)是不对的

E Only seven people this century have been killed by the great white shark, the man-eater of the movies, fewer than the ones killed by bee stings 比较应该是fewer than the ones have been killed by bee stings 不能直接省have been

i don't think that this can be regarded as an ellipsis/omission, since "fewer than ..." isn't a clause. instead, like other comparisons, it's just a parallel structure: have been killed by the shark is parallel to have been killed by bee stings. note that these verbs don't necessarily have to be in the same tense; if context dictates, they can be in different tenses. for instance, the second half of this parallel structure could also be something like ...were killed in a single car accident this morning in Dallas.

in the correct answer, we have "have been killed by x" and "have been killed by y". perfect. you really aren't going to do any better than that! in the choice with "those killed by bee stings" -- note that we don't have "people killed by the great white shark" in the other part.

words below from Ron@http://www.manhattangmat.com you can't use parallel constructions with "those"/"that"/etc, in separate clauses, unless they are EXACTLY PARALLEL to whatever shows up in the other part. in this case: you can't write "those killed by bee stings" unless the other part contains "people killed by the great white shark" (with NOTHING IN BETWEEN). it doesn't, so you can't.

E has 2 problems: 1- no parallelism (have been) with (killed) 2- "the ones" is ambiguous, is it "the movies" or "the people"? the ones前面有定冠词the,表明指代前面曾经提到过的具体某一些人,在这个题目里,the ones特指前面被大白鲨杀死的那seven people。逻辑上,他们不可能既被great white shark又被bee stings所杀。注意比较前后对等,前面是have been killed by...所以E错了,少了have been, B in the choice with "those killed by bee stings" -- note that we don't have "people killed by the great white shark" in the other part.
