Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The missing detail in the second column is that TV cameras provide a good view of the action. This is important because it is a direct contrast to the first point in the first column, which highlights the potential for missing things due to seat location or lack of instant replays. Therefore, the best choice is B. A and C are not relevant to the points of contrast in the paragraph. The missing detail contrasts the disadvantage of missing things due to location or lack of replays when watching live with the advantage of TV cameras providing a good view of the action. Option A is irrelevant and Option C is not mentioned in the original plan.
