句子目的将women who ate lots of nuts和 women who ate no nuts at all比较，该选项中，由于 缺少系动词were，构成 less likely to suffer from A than B，宾语AB之间比较的歧义

缺省be动词were，产生了women who ate nuts were less likely to suffer from (CHD than women) 的歧义。 看Ron的解释：the two groups of women involved in the study were eating at exactly the same time as each other, so we must use PARALLEL TENSES. the first construction uses "women who ate nuts" -- simple past tense verb. therefore, if there is a verb in the second construction, it MUST also be in the simple past tense. (you can't change tenses if you are talking about two simultaneous events in parallel.)

这个选项从语法上来说并没有错，但E选项有更好的平行结构

相对错误，没有E选项优。因为主句是women之后加了who引导的定于从句，所以平行为美的话，E更好

少了系动词有歧义： less likely to suffer from A than B .

句子目的将women who ate lots of nuts和 women who ate no nuts at all比较，该选项中，由于 缺少系动词were，构成 less likely to suffer from A than B，宾语AB之间比较的歧义；；；关于比较中的后者是否应加上助动词或系动词的问题解释： 主谓宾成分具全的比较句，有两种情况：1）宾语的比较；2）主语的比较。在GMAT考试当中， 如果遇到主语比较的情况，一般要求第二个句子补出系动词或助动词，以避免歧义。 如：I eat apple faster than you do. 该句为主语之间的比较，句子中的do是不可以省略的。因为" 如果去掉do，则形成宾语比较句，apple和you进行比较，产生我吃苹果比吃你快的逻辑错误。 但是在只有主谓，没有宾语的句子中，由于没有宾语，所以不会产生上述歧义，所以不需要补充 系动词/助动词。如：I earn more than you.不需要补充do。如果补充了do，反而会构成罗嗦的错误。

women eating no nuts和 women who ate nuts沒有平整; 少了were在women前面

※【comparisons must involve parallel structures包括‘结构’和‘时态’】 【句子主干：women (who V-ed......)were less likely to .....than women (who V-ed....)】或者 【women (who V-ed......)were less likely to .....than were those who ate】重点是than前和than后的两个被比较成分‘可比’----->时态相同】 the two groups of women involved in the study were eating at exactly the same time as each other, so we must use PARALLEL TENSES. 【the first construction uses "women who ate nuts" -- simple past tense verb. therefore, if there is a verb in the second construction, it MUST also be in the simple past tense. (you can't change tenses if you are talking about two simultaneous events in parallel.)】 【"women who eating" switches to a present participle, breaking parallelism.】
