Laws requiring the use of headlights during daylight hours can prevent automobile collisions. However, since daylight visibility is worse in countries father from the equator, any such laws would obviously be more effective in preventing collisions in those countries. In fact, the only countries that actually have such laws are farther from the equator than is the continental United Stated.
Which of the following conclusions could be most properly drawn from the information given above??
答案是 Daytime headlight laws would probably do less to prevent collisions in the continental United States than they do in the countries that have the laws.

翻译：事实上，比起那些执行了headlight规定的国家，美国离赤道的距离更近。 我意译了一下便于你理解~，原文是倒装句，than is the continental United Stated作者: 2008115061 时间: 2010-7-16 19:37
打错了，更远作者: 绿水清心 时间: 2010-7-16 20:02
喔是这个意思~~那答案为什么是美国do less呢？？ 题干不是说 在远离赤道的国家这个法规应该更有效么？？？？？作者: 绿水清心 时间: 2010-7-16 20:04
题干到底是说美国有制定这项法规还是没有呢作者: yaffa 时间: 2010-7-17 20:54
题目中说“However, since daylight visibility is worse in countries father from the equator, any such laws would obviously be more effective in preventing collisions in those countries.” 说明离赤道越远的国家，用此举会越有效。 最后一句说的是 唯一的一个制定这项法规的国家距离赤道的距离比美国距离赤道的距离远，所以此举在这个法规制定国更有效咯～
