原题
(In countries where automobile insurance includes compensation for whiplash injuries sustained in automobile accidents, reports of having suffered such injuries are twice as frequent as they are in countries where whiplash is not covered. )Presently, no objective test for whiplash exists, so it is true that spurious reports of whiplash injuries cannot be readily identified. Nevertheless, these facts do not warrant the conclusion drawn by some commentators, that in the countries with the higher rates of reported whiplash injuries, half of the reported cases are spurious. Clearly,( in countries where automobile insurance does not include compensation for whiplash, people often have little incentive to report whiplash injuries that they actually have suffered.) A) The first is a claim that the argument disputes; the second is a conclusion that has been based on that claim.
B) The first is a claim that has been used to support a conclusion that the argument accepts; the second is that conclusion.
C) The first is evidence that has been used to support a conclusion for which the argument provides further evidence; the second is the main conclusion of the argument.
D) The first is a finding whose implications are at issue in the argument; the second is a claim presented in order to argue against deriving certain implications from that finding.
E) The first is a finding whose accuracy is evaluated in the argument; the second is evidence presented to establish that the finding is accurate.
我的中文理解是:两个前提(1在撞车后伤了whiplash 有得赔偿的国家,whiplash injuries 的报告率是没有赔偿的国家的两倍;2这些whiplash injuries 没办法检查到是真的还是假的),然后一些评论家就以此推测在这些报告率高的国家,有一半的报告都是假的;但是这些评论是错的,因为在报告率低的国家,很多人都因为没有赔偿而懒得报告
怎么也想不通最后这句怎么推出评论家的话就是错的了???
