This one is like LSAT question. The real problem is how we translate the question stem. what does it really mean? If we understand it correctly, we can pick the right answer much easier.
I will rephrase the question:
Harry: Anyone can travel around the world by air in much less time than he/she did in the past.
Judith: That's not true. Many flights are too expensive, and they are not for everyone.
Question: Judith's response shows that she understood Harry's implication that (his assumption)
Clearly, Harry's assumption is anyone can travel by air. If anyone cannot do so, why anyone can save time for traveling around the world?
E fits perfectly by showing Harry's assumption.
Hope it helps.
