Question

It’s reported that the United States uses______ energy as the whole of Europe.

A．as twice	B．twice much
C．twice much as	D．twice as much

Answer

D

【解析】考察倍数表达法。“A+倍数+形容词或副词的比较级+than+B”，表示“A比B大（长、高、宽等）多少倍”。“A+倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as+B”，表示“A正好是B的多少倍  “……times+more+名词（可数或不可数）+than+被比对象 “A+倍数+the size/height/length/width，etc+of+B”，表示“A正好是B的多少倍  “……times as many/much+名词+as+被比对象  “……times+what+从句，根据结构可知，D正确
