"________ with the size of the whole earth, the biggest ocean does not seem big at all.
A. Compare
B. When comparing
C. Comparing
D. When compared"

Answer 1

"答案D
该题考查状语从句的省略及动词compare的用法。compare可构成compare... with... 短语，意为""把……与……相比较""，该句前面补全为When (it is) compared with the size of the whole earth，由于主句的主语和从句的主语一致，所以省略了it is，该题的正确答案为D。"
