请问最后的这句She had broken the record to India by two days.是表示她在两天内到达印度还是表示她比纪录提早了两天,在六天内到达印度?
这是一道阅读理解。
3.Amy had broken the record to India when she arrived there
a) in two days
b) in less than two days
c) in less than six days
d) in more than six days
还有文中并没有出现八天这个信息。

She had broken the record to India by two days?Amy set off on May 5,1930.Her route took her over Vienna,Constantinople,and Baghdad.She was caught in a sandstorm and had to make an emergency landing in the desert.But she landed in India six days later
表示的是比原有记录提前了两天.这句话要拆分一下：
1.She had broken the record by two days.
2.the record (of "running/racing") to India
break the record+by+各种可以break的对象（时间,长度等等）,这是固定搭配.
the record 后面本应有后置定语running/racing to India,但是由于前后句意清晰,于是省略了表示动作的分词,但还是to India保留了下来,便于理解.遗憾的是由于句法的省略和添加,确实增加了非母语人士的理解!
那么如果'she landed in India six days later',答案应该是D

她打破了到达印度时间的记录，提前了两天（就是比记录提前了两天）就是说原来的记录是8天，即使她遇到了沙暴，还是用了6天到达印度

如果是两天内的话，应该是in two days,前面已经说了是six days later,所以是表示比记录提前两天。

她以提前两天的速度打破了到达印度的最快记录

我认为是“她比记录提早了两天”，记录可能在上下文中体现为8天，又或者是通过破纪录“break the record"可得知时间肯定是比原纪录要少，而又通过介词by 得知有可能是通过表示下降减少的动词 decrease/descend/加上介词 by表示减少了两天，也就是“提早了两天”。...

我认为是“她比记录提早了两天”，记录可能在上下文中体现为8天，又或者是通过破纪录“break the record"可得知时间肯定是比原纪录要少，而又通过介词by 得知有可能是通过表示下降减少的动词 decrease/descend/加上介词 by表示减少了两天，也就是“提早了两天”。

收起

我认为是“她六天后到达了印度”比之前有人的记录提早了两天。也就是说之前有人的记录是8天到达了印度。

我认为是“她比纪录提早了两天”，因为毕竟 “But she landed in India six days later.”是一个事实了，从这句话来看不可能是2天内到达印度的。

跟据上下文理她遭遇了沙尘暴，并不得不作出在沙漠上登录的突发事件。但她仍在六天后抵达了印度。最后一句是总结性的话，并非是上文的延续。因此应理解为她比记录提早了两天。
