问题 Although fruit can no longer grow once it is picked, it continues for some time to respire, taking in oxygen and giving off carbon dioxide, similar to the way human beings breathe.
选项 A、similar to the way human beings breathe
B、similarly to human beings who are breathing
C、just like the breathing of human beings
D、as human beings when breathing
E、just as human beings do when they breathe
答案E
解析 A中similar to是一形容词词组，一般修饰名词；而本句从句意上讲，要求其修饰整个前面的句子，这显然超出了它的“能力范围”；B：原句意是指两者在呼吸方式上的相似性，B选项却荒谬地认为水果“呼吸”的方式类似于人(而不是“人的呼吸方式”)；C中the breathingof human beings是一个名词词组，与之前的整个句子不存在可比性，相似性也就无从谈起。D中有两个缺陷：(1)as作介词，译为“作为”，逻辑上不通；(2)when状语从句不可能修饰名词humanbeings。E符合just as的结构，并补出动词do，这才真正地反映了句意。
