求助翻译OG13 CR 95题的英文一段话

Studies in restaurants show that the tips left by customers who pay their bill in cash tend to be larger when the bill is presented on a tray that bears a credit-card logo. Consumer psychologists hypothesize that simply seeing a credit-card logo makes many credit-card holders willing to spend more because it reminds them that their spending power exceeds the cash they have immediately available. Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the psychologists’ interpretation of the studies? (A) The effect noted in the studies is not limited to patrons who have credit cards. (B) Patrons who are under fi nancial pressure from their credit-card obligations tend to tip less when presented with a restaurant bill on a tray with a credit-card logo than when the tray has no logo. (C) In virtually all of the cases in the studies, the patrons who paid bills in cash did not possess credit cards. (D) In general, restaurant patrons who pay their bills in cash leave larger tips than do those who pay by credit card. (E) The percentage of restaurant bills paid with a given brand of credit card increases when that credit card’s logo is displayed on the tray with which the bill is presented. The psychologists’ hypothesis is that the credit-card logos on the trays bring to the minds of those who tip more the fact that they have more purchasing power than merely the cash that they have at hand. This explanation would not be valid even if those people who are not reminded of their own excess purchasing power—if in fact they have any such power—when they see such a logo nonetheless tip more in such trays.Th us, if restaurant patrons who are under fi nancial pressure from their credit-card obligations do not tip more when their bills are presented on trays bearing credit-card logos, then the psychologists’ interpretation of the studies is supported. 求助： 请教各位蓝色部分需要怎么翻译？ 先谢各位了~~

如果以纯属做题的态度对待此问题的话，除B外，都没有直接切入问题进行阐明，属于无关范围。因此可以推出B为答案。
我做此题后的，最强烈的感受就是如何正确迅速的找出原文前提。
感觉这些出题人搞了N多障眼法，我们需要齐天大圣的火眼金睛来有效区别。
我的路还长着，慢慢来吧。

谢谢你 jackykangyi
确实OG的有些解释真心觉得很伤脑细胞呢，汗！
他们的逻辑思维方式，磨合起来好费劲。。。
由于我是卡到一件事，非得解决才行的性格(自己也觉得有点累)，
这句话我想了两天(唉，就是和自己过不去)，我对它的最终解释和逻辑是这么理解的。

心里学家的假设逻辑：
see logo by CC holders -> remind them ->条件：they have exceeding power -> tip more

蓝色部分的逻辑：
see logo by CC holders ->didn't get reminded -> 条件：they have exceeding power -> also tip more
这时心理学家的假设是无法成立的。

为什么呢？？

文中原文前提给出的现象是see logo -> more tip
但是心里学家在这个过程中间加了一个假设就是reminded。（原文 because it reminds them that XXX）
如果当看到logo(when they see such a logo)时，即使(even if )没有被reminded(not reminded), ,还是会(nonetheless) tip more的话(到此都符合原文前提see logo -> tip more的现象)，此时，心里学家的逻辑就不成立。

因此，OG的重点不在于被reminded，而在于exceeding power，也就是原文 because it reminds them that XXX中 XXX的部分。
they don't have exceeding power -> tip less, 可以support 心里学家的假设。

以上是我对OG解释的理解，还请大家轻拍砖~~~

蓝色句的中文意思是：“那些没有被（口头）提醒他们拥有超强购买力的人-实际他们有-当他们看到信用卡上的Logo后，却会给予更多小费。”即使这个事实成立，那文中的解释也不一定成立。
有没有发觉OG的这个解释比题目还难啊？其实这句话就是把文章说了一遍，没啥特别的，反正能做对题目就行了。
