A、During the year following the tax increase, the pretax price of a pack of cigarettes did not increase by as much as it had during the year prior to the tax increase.
B、The one percent fall in cigarette sales in the year prior to tax increase was due to a smaller tax increase.

D、For the year following the tax increase, the pretax price of a pack of cigarettes was not eight or more cents lower than it had been the previous year.

这题为什么不能选A。图1这个好像就是因为in fact that做原因不够直接,不如直接加名词或者一句话的;所以我感觉B这里不够好。图2这个功能并列,这里是因为not...by...封闭式平行所以前后必须对等吗?因为我感觉但从语义来说,A也算是功能对等。

别的都明白了,就是不明白一点:E选项这个being,一般看到句首出现doing的形式,不应该下意识去找逻辑主语吗?可是这里的主语是动词后面,is likely to make an executive xx,这样算出现了主语吗?我感觉还是说得不太清楚啊。。。
