Question

As long as ________ you are, _________ mistakes you will make in the exam.

A.the more carefully; the less B.the more carefully; the fewer

C.the more careful; the less D.the more careful; the fewer

Answer

D

【解析】

句意：只要你越仔细，你在考试中犯的错误就会越少。

考查比较级辨析。more carefully更仔细地；more careful更仔细的；less更少的，修饰不可数名词；fewer更少的，修饰复数名词。本句是“the +比较级……，the +比较级……”结构，表示“越……，越……”。前句缺表语形容词，需用careful；后句mistakes是复数名词，需用few；根据句意结构，故选D。
