likelihood和may意思重复 scale that rates表示 sclae itself israting逻辑意思错误 likelihood of a particular asteroid or comet，是在说asteroid or comet的likelihood，而合理的意思应该是collide的可能性

This distinction comes into play when you look at the verbs in C and D. Different verbs. C mentions "how likely a comet/asteroid will be". Nope. The likelihood is something that exists now, not in the future. (That's the definition of "likelihood": How probable does this event seem right now? There's no "future likelihood" here. In the future, the event either happens or doesn't happen.) D mentions the likelihood (as measured at present) that a comet/asteroid will collide (in the future) with Earth. That makes sense.

refers to "the likelihood of an asteroid or comet". That doesn't make sense; a physical object doesn't have a "likelihood". We can only talk about the likelihood that something will happen.

E的问题在于意思发生了转变，原文说的是“asteroid和comet撞击的可能性”，而E的表述 likelihood of a particular asteroid or comet that may collide。。主体变成了likelihood of a particular asteroid or comet，也就是在说asteroid和comet的可能性，所以改变了原文意思。

This eliminates the option E because it means that the scale itself is rating.
