Ans: option B
In these type of questions ,you have to eliminate options and find the last possible answer.in this paragaraph the writer has written:”So science should be read with as much interest as we read news”,so he has already take the assumptions thet people read news out of interest.
And in the write’s view he thinks science should be read with as much interest as news, because they have been tested and reliable ,not because they can encourage investigative spirit.that will be our assumption,not the writer’s.
