GWD In countries where automobile insurance includes compensation for whiplash injuries sustained in automobile accidents, reports of having suffered such injuries are twice as frequent as they are in countries where whiplash is not covered. Some commentators have argued, correctly, that since there is presently no objective test for whiplash, spurious reports of whiplash injuries cannot be readily identified. These commentators are, however, wrong to draw the further conclusion that in the countries with the higher rates of reported whiplash injuries, half of the reported cases are spurious: clearly, in countries where automobile insurance does not include compensation for whiplash, people often have little incentive to report whiplash injuries that they actually have suffered.In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?
OG19 OG20 Last year a record number of new manufacturing jobs were created. Will this year bring another record? Well, any new manufacturing job is created either within an existing company or by the start-up of a new company. Within existing firms, new jobs have been created this year at well below last years record pace. At the same time, there is considerable evidence that the number of new companies starting up will be no higher this year than it was last year and there is no reason to think that the new companies starting up this year will create more jobs per company than did last year's start-ups. So clearly, the number of new jobs created this year will fall short of last years record. In the argument given, the two portions in boldface play which of the following ?

     As the end of World War II brought about a housing boom, the market for consumer home lending expanded significantly, and the financial institutions that had traditionally provided mortgages to working-class Americans faced new competitive pressures. Although the United States League of Local Buildings and Loans in America (USLLBLA), an association of institutions focused on savings accounts and homeowner lending, did not oppose the entry of other lenders into the market, it did lobby to retain the privilege of offering higher interest rates on savings accounts than banks were allowed to give.

     These efforts were spurred in part by the expansion of the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), a federal agency that began to insure mortgages with increasingly consumer-friendly terms. The FHA rules, like USLLBLA, allowed people to afford homes who otherwise could not have done so. It did this in part by relaxing the regulations governing the maximum length of a mortgage and the minimum down payment required, making the loans available to those who accrued capital more slowly than the typical homeowner previously had. In response, the USLLBLA also formed the Voluntary Home Mortgage Credit Program (VHMCP), taking advantage of the new regulations to offer the more affordable loans to people in rural areas in hopes of forestalling further expansion of federal agencies into the mortgage business.
