Unacademy Official Explanation:

The underlined part in the original sentence is wordy which can be replaced correctly by the phrase given in option C.

Option A is incorrect. It is the same as the original underlined phrase.

Option B is incorrect. It uses “against” in place of “on” which is an incorrect use of prepositions.

Option D is incorrect. It uses “of” in place of “on” which is an incorrect use of prepositions with “expand”.

Option E is incorrect. It uses “at” in place of “on” which is an incorrect use of prepositions in this sentence.

Hence, option C is correct.

D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them,
E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce them,
______________________________________
Understanding the meaning of the question is important to solve it. Moreover, there is a little comma in the end of the underlined portion of the sentence that comma could help us to understand the intended meaning. (at least to some extent). Let's take a look at answer choices.
A - after underlined part of the sentence, there is ''to diverse''. If we drop the central part of the sentence and join the other two, It will not give any connection. Even we read it with central part of the sentence, there may appear question '' why last part starts with '' to diverse'' ? it is not parallel to anything . A is out.
B - Similar error as in A. Moreover, ''against this PM'' distorts the intended meaning of the sentence. B is out.
C - Looks alright and conveys precise meaning. '' will expand ... and introduce them to diverse ...'' Keep C
D - Similar error as in A and in B.
E - There is a parallelism error in E. '' introduce them'' cant not parallel to expand, because ''at this political movement and introduce them'' has been separated by commas on both sides. Illogical meaning and parallelism error.

C is our winner.
Hope it helps.

A. will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them,
Incorrect. This sentence is grammatically correct but it could be interpreted as if the views are for the political movement, not the readers.

B. will expand views of the readers against this political movement and introduce them,
Incorrect. This sentence is grammatically correct but it implies that the views are against the political movement, which is not be the intended meaning.

C. will expand readers’ views on this political movement and introduce them
Correct. Most clear and accurate of them all.

D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them,
Incorrect. This uses 'reader's' (singular) instead of 'readers'' (plural) so doesnt work for this sentence

E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce the
Incorrect. The use of 'at' could be confusing as it might imply that the readers are physically at the political movement.

the answer is C because it requires verb.

Good question. Looking at the original sentence, one can notice that the use of comma after "them" alters the meaning completely. Further, "for" and "against" - both are incorrect. Rather, the use of "on" would be preferred here. Hence, my answer is C).

The correct answer is (C). The sentence is about the deep historical knowledge of the contributors and how it will expand the readers' views on a political movement. The phrase "readers' views" is the most accurate way to refer to the readers' perspectives on the political movement.

The other options are incorrect for the following reasons:

(A) The phrase "views of the readers for this political movement" is grammatically incorrect. The preposition "for" should be "on."
(B) The phrase "views of the readers against this political movement" is too narrow. The sentence is about expanding the readers' views on the political movement, not just their views against it.
(D) The phrase "reader's views of this political movement" is singular, but the sentence is referring to the views of multiple readers.
(E) The phrase "views of the readers, at this political movement" is grammatically incorrect. The comma after "views" is unnecessary.
Therefore, the correct answer is (C).

The original sentence is grammatically correct, but it is a bit awkward. The phrase "will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them" is a bit redundant, as the word "introduce" already implies "expansion." The phrase "at this political movement" is also a bit awkward.

The best way to improve the sentence is to use the phrase "readers' views on this political movement" instead of "views of the readers for this political movement." This phrase is more concise and clear, and it does not imply that the readers are already in favor of the political movement.

The other answer choices are not as good as (C).

(A) and (B) are grammatically incorrect. The phrase "will expand views of the readers against this political movement" is not a logical statement, as it is impossible to expand someone's views against something. The phrase "will expand views of the readers for this political movement" is grammatically correct, but it is a bit awkward.
(D) is also grammatically incorrect. The possessive apostrophe is missing from the word "reader's."
(E) is grammatically correct, but it is a bit awkward. The phrase "at this political movement" is a bit awkward, and it does not clearly state that the readers are being introduced to diverse scholarly perspectives on the political movement.

Therefore, the best answer is (C).

The Answer is C
Statement A uses views of the readers for this- which is ungrammatical and incorrect
Statement B uses views of the readers against this- which is incorrect and makes the statement sounds ambiguous
Statement C uses readers’ views on this which is grammatically correct and the correct usage of views on
Statement D uses views of this political which is incorrect. It should be views on
Statement E uses views of which is incorrect and the tense usage is wrong here.

The deep historical knowledge of our contributors, will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them, to diverse scholarly perspectives on the latest news.

A. will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them,
incorrect - The use of preposition “for” is not appropriate in this context. It should be readers' views on this political movement.
B. will expand views of the readers against this political movement and introduce them,
Incorrect - The use of preposition “against” is not appropriate in this context. It should be readers' views on this political movement.
C. will expand readers’ views on this political movement and introduce them
Correct - Option C uses the correct preposition "on". Also, it correctly uses the possessive form "readers" to indicate that it is the views of the readers that will expand.
D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them,
Incorrect - Use of apostrophe in "reader's" is incorrect. It should be readers' views.
E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce them,
Incorrect - The use of preposition “at” is not appropriate in this context. It should be readers' views on this political movement.
Also, the use of double comma makes "will expand views of the .... introduce them" a non-essential modifier in all options less C.

each sentence except C, puts comma at the end of underlined sentence making it a modifier, if this line is made a modifier, it makes no sense.
Only C omits the use of comma, and is hence, correct.
