Nora Ephron's 1983 novel Heartburn is regularly described as autobiographical. That characterization is apt—there are many parallels between the experiences of the novel's narrator, Rachel Samstat, and those of Ephron—but it should not be taken to mean that all the people and events depicted in Heartburn are based on actual people and events. The novel is largely pure invention, and readers who neglect this fact and instead try to identify more and more real-life analogues thus risk ________
Which choice most logically completes the text?
A. overemphasizing the extent to which Ephron took inspiration from earlier writers.
B. positing unsupportable connections between Heartburn and Ephron's life.
C. misrepresenting Heartburn as being more widely read than it actually is.
D. minimizing the fact that Ephron drew on real-world material when writing Heartburn.
翻译：
Nora Ephron 1983 年的小说《Heartburn》经常被描述为自传体。这种说法是有一定道理的——小说叙述者 Rachel Samstat 的经历与 Ephron 本人之间确实存在许多相似之处——但这并不意味着《Heartburn》中所有的人物和事件都基于现实生活。该小说在很大程度上是纯粹的虚构，而忽视这一点、反而不断试图在小说中寻找现实对应的人物和事件的读者，因此有可能 ________
解析：
文本先承认“自传性”这一点（有相似性），但通过转折强调：小说大部分是虚构。因此，如果读者忽视“虚构性”，一味去找现实原型，就会犯的错误是——过度把小说与现实生活对应起来，做出不合理的联系。
选项分析：
A. overemphasizing the extent to which Ephron took inspiration from earlier writers.
错误。文本讨论的是“现实生活 vs 小说”的关系，而不是“其他作家对其影响”。
B. positing unsupportable connections between Heartburn and Ephron's life.
正确。完全对应逻辑：如果忽视虚构性、不断寻找现实原型，就会提出“无法支持的现实对应关系”。
C. misrepresenting Heartburn as being more widely read than it actually is.
错误。与阅读范围无关。
D. minimizing the fact that Ephron drew on real-world material when writing Heartburn.
错误。相反，问题在于过度强调现实来源，而不是弱化它。
