5. Carbon-14 dating reveals that the megalithic monuments in Brittany are nearly 2,000 years as old as any of their supposed Mediterranean predecessors.
A. as old as any of their supposed
B. older than any of their supposed
C. as old as their supposed
D. older than any of their supposedly
E. as old as their supposedly
1.為什么要是than，不可以是as…as呢？
比較結構：
A more than B or A as + adj+ as B. （as.. as 結構的平行問題）在A as + adj+ as B 的形式中， A/B 要是同類而且對稱的。邏輯意思決定選擇比較結構：2000 years 和Mediterranean predecessors. 不對等，不能用 as old
nearly 和 predecessor 都暗示此處要選擇 more .. than結構
如果要表示對等，應該是A is nearly 2000 years old, as old as any of ….
這道題用比較級的關鍵在于劃線部分前面是2,000 years ，如果不是比較級，前面不能放 2.000 years
2 修飾：形容詞修飾名詞性短語， 副詞修飾動詞/形容詞, Mediterranean predecessors. 是名詞性短語，用形容詞修飾
3. 保持原句意思平行結構改成分詞修飾結構會改變原句的意思。
