Questions 31-32 Political opinion and analysis outside the mainstream rarely are found on television talk shows, and it might be thought that this state of affairs is a product of the political agenda of the television stations themselves. In fact, television stations are driven by the same economic forces as sellers of more tangible goods. Because they must attempt to capture the largest possible share of the television audience for their shows, they air only those shows that will appeal to large numbers of people. As a result, political opinions and analyses aired on television talk shows are typically bland and innocuous.
31. An assumption made in the explanation offered by the author of the passage is that
A. most television viewers cannot agree on which elements of a particular opinion or analysis are most disturbing. B. there are television viewers who might refuse to watch television talk shows that they knew would be controversial and disturbing. C. each television viewer holds some opinion that is outside the political mainstream, but those opinions are not the same for everyone. D. there are television shows on which economic forces have an even greater impact than they do on television talk shows. E. the television talk shows of different stations resemble one another in most respects.
B is the best answer.
先抽象原文：TV station的政治talk show是受经济利益驱使，看谁能capture the largest possible viewers，而不是TV station’s political agenda，所以，TV station的政治Talk show是bland and innocuous (柔和的和不得罪人的)。问explanation的assumption：
tv reviewers拒绝看controversial and disturbing的talk show；这正好在“capture the largest possible viewers”与“bland and innocuous” 架了一座桥梁。So B is the best answer. 文章讨论的重点不是outside the political mainstream, 所以是无关项。
答案是B没有问题，但是文章讨论的重点不是outside the political mainstream, 所以是无关项. 不是这个，那是什么啊，什么是文章讨论的重点呢？或者，为什么这个一定是无关呢？
