population in that region is more numerous

region was greater

在不清楚句意的前提下...看到if条件子句
1.主要子句中用would/should/could无论表与现在/过去/未来事实相反 ,
条件子句中动词需用过去式,删除(A)(B)
2.density是集合名词? 动词用单数,删除(E).
(E)中, will表未来但是条件子句中用动词were(incorrect tense)
Question:
1. 请问(C)错的点在哪里? 该如何下手解题?
2. why greater is better than numerous??
感恩
