单选题 (Less women) than men (are attracted) to careers in the physical sciences, even though (there are now) more women in the sciences (than ever before).
  • A. Less women
  • B. are attracted
  • C. there are now
  • D. than ever before


【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】该句意为“尽管现在从事科学研究工作的女性人数比以前大大增多，但爱好物理学的女性人数比男性少”。women是可数名词复数，因此它前面的修饰词只能是修饰可数名词的形容词比较级，故A应改为比较级fewer，原形为few。
