When a person with temporal lobe epilepsy is having an epileptic seizure, part of the brain’s temporal lobe produces abnormal electrical impulses, which can often, but not always, be detected through a test called an electroencephalogram (EEG). Therefore, although a positive EEG reading—that is, evidence of abnormal electrical impulses—during an apparent seizure is a reasonably reliable indicator of temporal lobe epilepsy, ______
Of the following, which one logically completes the conclusion above?
(A) a positive reading is just as reliable an indicator of the absence of temporal lobe epilepsy
(B) a positive reading can also indicate the presence of other forms of epilepsy
(C) a positive reading is more frequently an erroneous reading than is a negative one
(D) a negative reading does not mean that temporal lobe epilepsy can be ruled out
(E) a negative reading is just as reliable an indicator of the presence of temporal lobe epilepsy

Only D reflects the meaning in the phrase "which can often, but not always, be detected through' that a nagative test also can be ther despite the presence of the disease. As we are aware, the corrct anwers in complete the passage questions always have to be drawn only from the prmises and not from outside.
