有无纠结在CE之间?
说两个可能对于题干理解产生困扰的地方:
1.有个小朋友对Therefore,SalcorlacksanyfinancialincentivetoprovidesimilarencouragementtoRencoemployees.理解产生困惑~大概意思概括为“因此,S无法用类似的经济原因说服R公司的员工(保险)”,这里的“同样的理由”是指SalcorencouragesGarnetemployeestohavetheircholesterollevelstestedandtoobtainearlytreatmentforhighcholesterol.;
2.胆固醇高低与年纪毫无关系,Sencourage提到的earlytreatment是指:
与发病相对的早。

考点:
注意蓝色表示处"Thusitappearsthatforoneinfoursuchpatients,thedoctorswhoadvisedthemtoundergothissurgery,withitsattendantrisksandexpense,..."没看清蓝色表示出容易干扰判断,因为由蓝色字可推出作者的观点:
接受手术的病人中有1/4不一定要接受手术治疗,医生出于练手或者经济利益原因向病人推荐手术治疗,而不是为了帮助病人。
由此得到答案(术前医生无法判断手术效果)
