調(diào)查:“黑色星期五”其實(shí)并不“黑”

Dutch statisticians have established that Friday 13th, a date regarded in many countries as inauspicious, is actually safer than an average Friday.

Dutch statisticians have established that Friday 13th, a date regarded in many countries as inauspicious, is actually safer than an average Friday.

A study published on Thursday by the Dutch Centre for Insurance Statistics (CVS) showed that fewer accidents and reports of fire and theft occur when the 13th of the month falls on a Friday than on other Fridays.

"I find it hard to believe that it is because people are preventatively more careful or just stay home, but statistically speaking, driving is a little bit safer on Friday 13th," CVS statistician Alex Hoen told the Verzekerd insurance magazine.

In the last two years, Dutch insurers received reports of an average 7,800 traffic accidents each Friday, the CVS study said. But the average figure when the 13th fell on a Friday was just 7,500.

There were also fewer incidents of fire and theft, although the average value of losses on Fridays 13th was slightly higher.

Friday the 13th phobia is rooted in western culture. Some people are so paralyzed with fear they simply don’t get out of bed. Others steadfastly refuse to fly on an airplane, buy a house, or act on a hot stock tip.

荷蘭統(tǒng)計(jì)學(xué)家日前公布,在很多國家被認(rèn)為不吉利的“黑色星期五”其實(shí)比普通星期五更安全。

荷蘭保險數(shù)據(jù)統(tǒng)計(jì)中心(CVS)于本周四公布的一項(xiàng)研究顯示,在“黑色星期五”發(fā)生的事故及火災(zāi)、盜竊報(bào)告起數(shù)均少于其它星期五。

該機(jī)構(gòu)的統(tǒng)計(jì)學(xué)家阿萊克斯?霍恩在接受Verzekerd保險雜志的采訪時說:“我很難相信這是因?yàn)槿藗冊谶@一天格外小心或者干脆不出門,但從數(shù)據(jù)統(tǒng)計(jì)看,黑色星期五的交通安全狀況比普通星期五略好?!?/font>

該研究稱,在過去兩年中,荷蘭的保險公司平均每周五收到7800起交通事故的報(bào)告,但在“黑色星期五”僅為7500例。

此外,“黑色星期五”的火災(zāi)和盜竊報(bào)告數(shù)也較少,不過這一天的商業(yè)損失可要比平時略高一些。

對于“黑色星期五”的恐懼深深植根于西方文化中。有些人太害怕了,所以遇到這一天干脆不起床;有些人則堅(jiān)決不坐飛機(jī)、買房或炒股。

Vocabulary:  

Friday 13th:“黑色星期五”(在西方文化中,星期五和數(shù)字13都代表著壞運(yùn)氣,兩個不幸的個體結(jié)合在一起,就成了超級不幸的一天。所以,不管哪個月的十三日又恰逢星期五就叫“黑色星期五”。)
