问题 The following questions present a sentence, part of which or all of which is underlined. Beneath the sentence, you will find five ways of phrasing the underlined part. The first of these repeats the original; the other four are different. If you think the original is best, choose the first answer; otherwise choose one of the others.
   These questions test correctness and effectiveness of expression. In choosing your answer, follow the requirements of standard written English; that is, pay attention to grammar, choice of words, and sentence construction. Choose the answer that produces the most effective sentence; this answer should be clear and exact, without awkwardness, ambiguity, redundancy, or grammatical error.
Archeological excavations of Roman ruins on the Greek island of Crete show that securing control over the maritime trade routes of the Eastern Mediterranean was a primary goal of the Romans, as it was of the Greeks in preceding centuries.

选项 A、as it was of the Greeks
B、like that of the Greeks
C、as that of the Greeks
D、just as the Greeks did
E、as did the Greeks

答案A

解析 A is the only response that makes clear that the goal was what the Romans and Greeks had in common. B and C lack clear referents for "that." D and E fail to make clear exactly what the Greeks "did." A is the best answer.
