1、populations's estimated amount 错误。这里比较的是population本身,而不是population们的什么什么。 2、“倍数比较词” times twice double等不能与“相对比较词” more than,less than等一起用。

表示倍数的times, 一般用法有: xxx times as many/much as; xx times + n. 如果想表达一个数字比另一个大多少,有很多种表达方式,如果表示倍数的话可以使用times 和as...:   The man is THREE TIMES AS OLD AS his grandson.   我们可以说3 Times As Old As, 但不能写 3 Times Older Than. 同样可以写3 Years Older Than, 但是不能写3 Years As Old As.当然使用times 的时候不一定要用as 或than :   Right: The cost of a ticket is $12, SIX TIMES the cost ten years ago.   Right: The concert was attended by 300 people, TWICE the previous attendance.

RON: * "Amount" is incorrect. Because rhinos can be counted, it needs to be "number" instead. * "Population" already represents the number of rhinos. So, if "population" is there, the use of "number" or "amount" is redundant.

如果是 ten times more than ,應該是2000+, 而這裡是剛好20000,所以是剛剛好2000的十倍,more than多餘。再通過that指代rhino population 排除B選線

同B选项,指代应为population数量本身,不需要做其所属代词

"ten times more than" is wrong. Population and amount mean the same thing, so create a redundancy. Corrected: ten times (as much as) the estimated population of 2,000 in 1997.
