試題分析：倍數(shù)表達(dá)是高考常考內(nèi)容，倍數(shù)表達(dá)要牢記，倍數(shù)表達(dá)法是高中英語教學(xué)的重點(diǎn)，當(dāng)我們要表達(dá)甲是乙的幾倍時(shí)，通常用句型來表示：1. “A+倍數(shù)+形容詞或副詞的比較+than+B”，表示“A比B大（長、高、寬等）多少倍”。如：This rope is twice longer than that one. 2.“A+倍數(shù)+as+形容詞或副詞的原級+as+B”，表示“A正好是B的多少倍”。如：Asia is four times as large as Europe. 亞洲的面積是歐洲的四倍。3“A++the size/height/length/width， etc+of+B”，表示“A正好是B的多少倍”。如：This street is four times the length of that one.4.“……times+what+從句”。如The production is now three times what it was ten years ago.本題考察的是第1種結(jié)構(gòu)。故C正確。
