如果没有had那么该句还可理解为有较少的对工作和生活的承诺和对父母和祖父母的承诺，加上had更清楚同时，be与waswere比较，have、has与had比较，一般动词与did比较

没有had导致歧义：1.than to their parents；2. than their parents had/did

助动词要不要补出是为了避免歧义 这里没有助动词 young people have less of a c to work and a career than(to) their parents and grandparents. 这并不是原句意思

能不能省略助动词，关键看会不会改变句子意思，这里的B选项不是绝对的说不能省因为在很多题目中，助动词是省略的，但是在这里会cause ambiguity： there is ambiguity if you eliminate the helping verb. without the helping verb, there are two interpretations: 1: young people are less committed to work/career than WERE their parents/grandparents (the intended meaning) 2: young people are less committed to work/career than TO their parents/grandparents you can't te D中实意动词既可以用do does did补出，也可以直接用实意动词本身补出

有歧义，had省略以后，句子可能有两种意思，一种是young people和parents and grandparents比较，一种是work and a career 和 parents and grandparents比较

本句话实际语意是年轻人与老年人相比对工作和事业少承诺，但是划线句有歧义，或者是正确意思或者是，年轻人对工作和事业比对他们的父母有更少承诺
