53. (34461-!-item-!-188;#058&007571)
When a polygraph test is judged inconclusive, this is no reflection on the examinee.  Rather, such a judgment means that the test has failed to show whether the examinee was truthful or untruthful.  Nevertheless, employers will sometimes refuse to hire a job applicant because of an inconclusive polygraph test result.
Which of the following conclusions can most properly be drawn from the information above?
(A) Most examinees with inconclusive polygraph test results are in fact untruthful.
(B) Polygraph tests should not be used by employers in the consideration of job applicants.
(C) An inconclusive polygraph test result is sometimes unfairly held against the examinee.
(D) A polygraph test indicating that an examinee is untruthful can sometimes be mistaken.
(E) Some employers have refused to consider the results of polygraph tests when evaluating job applicants.


答案是C，我是按照排除法做的。但是并不理解为什么C是正确的。
C的字面意思是不是：没有结论的测谎结果有时候被被试者不公平地对待？？？
但这跟雇主为什么不雇佣应聘者有什么关系呢~~~~？


求解答T~T 可能我脑子绕进去了。。。

题目中的“Nevertheless”对前一句提出另外一种情景（职场上）的转折。雇主用测谎结果来拒绝雇应聘者，而不是第一句题目上写的测谎结果应该只是用来法庭上判决，测谎结果和examinee的人格诚实性无关。 B选项的观点太personal，扯得略微远了一点。而C可以从题目中直接可以提炼出来的，polygraph test 用来不公平的对待被测试者。 另外LZ对C的理解貌似错了。

LS
judged inconclusive不是应该是无法判断的意思么……为什么会扯到法庭上判决@@
难道是我完全理解错了。。。。

C的理解懂了！刚才果然没绕出来！是AGAINST不是BY！THX~~
