OG 321页里的一道题

Sparva, unlike Treland’s other provinces, requires automobile insurers to pay for any
medical treatment sought by someone who has been involved in an accident; in the
other provinces, insurers pay for nonemergency treatment only if they preapprove the
treatment. Clearly, Sparva’s less restrictive policy must be the explanation for the fact
that altogether insurers there pay for far more treatments after accidents than insurers
in other provinces, even though Sparva does not have the largest population.


7. Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?
A Car insurance costs more in Sparva than in any other province.
B The cost of medical care in Sparva is higher than the national average.
C Different insurance companies have different standards for determining
what constitutes emergency treatment.
D Fewer insurance companies operate in Sparva than in any other province.
E There are fewer traffic accidents annually in Sparva than in any of the
provinces of comparable or greater population.

我选的A，答案是E
说S的policy  less restrictive 是因为要付更多的treatments ， 那么E中更少的accidents 岂不是和更多的treatments 相反了，那还怎么strengthen呢？

这道题不懂，求高手赐教。

原文应该看懂了吧？说S的保险公司付钱多，给的explanation是说S的政策 less restrictive
问：支持原文explanation的论据

原文存在一个假设是：S地和其他地区相比，accident数量不会更多~~
否则总保险额高，可能是因为accident比其他地区多

不知道这样说你明白不

你的意思是,  more traffic accidents 和more treatments 一样是用来解释
less restrictive  的两个原因


那么E less  traffic accidents  就是否定了前者, 所以 只剩下more treatments 这个
explanation  了  ?




但是 more traffic accidents  怎么解释
less restrictive 呢.. ???

我赶脚你木有读懂文章。。。

原文前面一句是介绍实际情况，S地保险公司要支付任何的治疗费（less restriction就是说限制少），其他地方不是这样~~
然后说S地的保险公司支付的保险金比其他地方多，唯一的解释是 less restriction~that is，保险公司要支付任何的治疗费

然后问怎么削弱这个explanation

原文的解释要成立，必须保证S地的accident数量和其他地方差不多或者少于其他地方，否则，如果S地accident数量比其他地方多的话，那么虽然保险公司支付的保险总额多，但是平均到每个accident上的钱并不多，明白吧？这样的话，less restriction就不能解释这个问题了啊~~

S的policy less restrictive 是因为要付更多的treatments

你这句话就表明木有读懂。。。原文这句
Sparva’s less restrictive policy must be the explanation for the fact that altogether insurers there pay for far more treatments
是想表述
支付more treatment是因为policy less restrictive【也就是用policy less restrictive来解释 支付more treatment】
自己再好好看看
