While this is not directly stated, this line of reasoning is confirmed by the information that the review editor's brilliant system tended to publish only positive reviews.
Given that the reviewers were paid promptly anyway, it follows that prompt payment would not be a major concern for them. This sentence goes on to suggest that having their material published in the newspaper was of concern, specifically implying that this concern may have induced some of them to provide more favorable reviews in order to ensure publication.
E. The passage states that book review editors must consider what will be newsworthy, advertised, and written about elsewhere. In other words, other publications' writing about the same books factor into the decisions of these editors.
one可以同物指代，也可以异物指代。同物指代时，它表示的是对先行词的范围进一步缩小，异物指代则是指与先行词同类异物的东西。
E.G：
I lost my old camera; this is a new one. 同类异物
After walking by the chocolates so many times, Roger finally had to eat one. 范围缩小后的同物
B，makes missing signs or misinterpreting ones likely. 这里是误解前面提到过的signs，而不是误解signs里的某些，不能用ones，用them
ultimately修饰点，不修饰线。with the goal to ultimately reduce the number of guests……，意思是不满顾客的数量从增长或维持变成下降，在变为下降的这一刻，目标即已达到。但逻辑上，目标应该是减少不满顾客的数量，这个减少不是只要达到减少状态就可以了，而是达到不断减少的一个状态，理论上说，希望减少到0.所以reduce的最佳状态还是作为过程，而不是被ultimately修饰后变成一个点。
这里用like来举例了。。
D，the company没有their company将company与前面提到的entrepreneurs联系起来表达的逻辑清晰；so that要么做结果连词，表示因此，要么做目的连词，表示以便，这里表目的。sb do sth， so that ……这个句型参考if句的主将从现规则，前面类似于条件，用一般现在时，后面类似于条件下的结果，用将来时或用can/could等表示可能发生。
同位语也是修饰语，在修饰被同位的词语或句子，A的主干是：Warren was near the center, from 1765 to 1789；E的主干是：Warren was near the center, from 1765 to 1789, and this vantage point made her a good historian. 可见后半部分其实是重要的内容，应该作为独立句与主句平行，而不是作为主句的修饰部分。
同位语与状语相比时，通常同位语更有利于表意；但这里同位语与独立句比较时，却是独立句能更好地表意。

E. Correct. Among the answer choices, absurd best captures the ironic use of brilliant and preserves the meaning of the sentence as a whole.
