这道题题目没看懂，黄线部分没看懂， deficit figures are adjusted是什么意思？reliably comparable 是什么意思？能帮忙翻译一下吗？
感谢大家~~希望哪位大虾帮帮忙~~

题目：
60.(33807-!-item-!-188;#058&007599)

Large national budget deficits do not cause large trade deficits. If they did, countries with the largest budget deficits would also have the largest trade deficits. In fact, when deficit figures are adjusted so that different countries are reliably comparable to each other, there is no such correlation.

If the statements above are all true, which of the following can properly be inferred on the basis of them?

(A) Countries with large national budget deficits tend to restrict foreign trade.

(B) Reliable comparisons of the deficit figures of one country with those of another are impossible.

(C) Reducing a country's national budget deficit will not necessarily result in a lowering of any trade deficit that country may have.

(D) When countries are ordered from largest to smallest in terms of population, the smallest countries generally have the smallest budget and trade deficits.

(E) Countries with the largest trade deficits never have similarly large national budget deficits.

实际上，当赤字的数据被调整、使不同国家的（数据）具有可比性时，两个无关。

举个例子：英国赤字和美国赤字可能因为两个国家所有货币不同、两个国家通货膨胀率不一样所以从数值上来讲没有可比性，如果把两国赤字都转化成美元，然后消除两国通货膨胀率影响，这样这两个数字就有可比性了。reliable只是增加可信度的词。

未必需要搭理俩组合的意思。这道题的明显错误比较扎眼，列举几个已发现的明显错误，都是题干中毫无涉及的：
A: “导致限制外贸”
B:“不可能”
D:“人口变化”
E:"赤字之间不可能均等“
这些选项可以一次性排除的。

Inference is the one of the easiest for CR. Like what LS says, you need to find a Must-Be-True answer from the choices. Any out-of-scope choices are wrong answers.

to sdcar, I still got a Q:

the argument only refers to countries with large defict but doesnot mention any thing about "reducing deficit" in choice C.

(C) Reducing a country's national budget deficit will not necessarily result in a lowering of any trade deficit that country may have.

Hope u can help with this.

Large national budget deficits do not cause large trade deficits (main conclusion). If they did, countries with the largest budget deficits would also have the largest trade deficits. In fact, when deficit figures are adjusted so that different countries are reliably comparable to each other, there is no such correlation (premise).

(C) Reducing a country's national budget deficit will not necessarily result in a lowering of any trade deficit that country may have.

Logic:

Since there is no correlation between large national budget deficit and large trade deficits, the large national budget deficits do not cause the large trade deficits.

If the large national budget deficit do not cause the large trade deficits, then reducing the former would not necessarily affect the latter.

During the exam, focus on the fundamentals. In terms of CR, find the premise and main conclusion!
