> 1.Trying to learn some of the basis of programming is (the same as to tinker with a car when one is a teenager); some people end up going to engineering school, and others, twenty years later, remember nothing of the experience.

> A. 原文
> C. like tinkering with a car as a teen-ager

> Aが正解ですが、Cはどこがまずいのでしょうか？
as a teen-agerをwhen one is a teenagerの意味として理解できなくもないけど、GMATでは曖昧になると思います。
> 2. In his research paper, Dr. Frosh, medical director of the Payne Whitney Clinic, distingushes (mood swings, which may be violent without their being grounded in mental disease, from genuine manic-depressive psycosis.)

> A. 原文
> C. between mood swings, which may be violent without being grounded in mental disease, and genuine manic-depressive psycosis
>
> Cが正解ですが、Aはどこが駄目でしょうか？distinguish A from Bのidiomがあったと記憶してますが。
distinguish b/w A and Bというidiomも同意であります。ですので、残りを比較するとAのtheirがredundantでダメなのだと思います。
> 3. Opened in 1683, the Asholeian was the first public museum in Great Britain, (while earlier the Bodleian has been) the first truly public library.
>
> C. just as earlier the Bodleian had been

> Cが正解ですが、as earlierの語順がしっくりきません。文法上、どのような意味、構造なのでしょうか？
as earlierの語順というよりjust asで考えたほうが良いと思います。earlierは文全体を修飾する副詞と考えられます。
> 4. Because natural gas is composed mostly of methane, a simple hydrocarbon, vehicles powered bynatural gas emit (less of certain pollutants than the burning of gasoline or diesel fuel.)
>
> D. fewer of certain pollutants than does burning gasoline or diesel fuel
> E. less of certain pollutants than those burning gasoline or diesel fuel
>
> Eが正解ですが、pollutantsと複数形にも関わらず、lessで受けてます。certain pollutantsをあるひとまとまりのものとして捉えているからでしょうか？
less of certain pollutantsの説明は私もできませんが、ただ明らかにdoes burning gasoline or diesel fuelはXです。doesはemitoの代動詞ですが、emitするのはvehiclesです。
> 5. The five hundred largest manufacturing firms in the United States produce goods (that are worth almost as much

>
> C. almost as much in worth as those of the remaining four hundred thousand firms
> E. worth almost as much as those of the remaining four hundred thousand firms
>
> Eが正解ですが、Cだと意味がどう変わってしまうのでしょうか？
これ原級とか副詞とか余計なものをはずすと分かりやすいのではないでしょうか。in worthという副詞句はgoods（名詞）を修飾することはできないけど、形容詞worthはできますからEがOKで片付けちゃまずいですか？
詳しい方が後から続くと思いますので、フォローを待ちたいと思います。
