Most jurors will be more inclined to reach a verdict favorable to one side if that side's case is based primarily on eyewitness testimony rather than on physical evidence backed by expert scientific testimony. Surprisingly, studies involving jurors in mock trials have found that this tendency survives even for those jurors who understand that eyewitness testimony is generally less reliable than is physical evidence backed by expert testimony.
Which of the following, if true, would most help to explain the surprising phenomenon described above?
Jurors in mock trials usually spend less time deliberating and worrying about reaching the right verdict than do jurors in actual trials.
Because expert testimony regarding physical evidence presented at trial is almost invariably given by witnesses testifying for one side or the other, many jurors regard such witnesses as biased.
The credibility that a particular juror will assign to a particular eyewitness will be profoundly influenced by personal characteristics of the eyewitness including age.
Even jurors who understand that eyewitnesses tend to be less reliable than physical evidence incorrectly believe they are better than the average juror at telling when an eyewitness’s testimony is reliable.
The more complex the physical evidence presented at trial is, the less it will influence the jurors in reaching their verdict.
选项B只能解释为什么物证是不好的。但请注意要解释的句子中的定语：understand that eyewitness testimony is generally less reliable than is physical evidence
也就是说，原文中已经告诉了我们，目击证据就是不如物证可靠，要我们解释的是，为什么即便是不可靠，陪审团还是要看。
这个选项只说了物证不好，和我们要解释的部分没有关系。
