The 151 member governments of the World Bank are expected to increase the bank's funding by $75 billion, though some United States legislators cite an obstacle to congressional passage being the concern that the bank's loans will help foreign producers compete with American businesses.(A) an obstacle to Congressional passage being the concern(B) a concern as an obstacle to Congressional passage(C) as an obstacle to Congressional passage the concern(D) the concern, an obstacle to Congressional passage,(E) as an obstacle for Congress to pass it the concern

Correct option is C: as an obstacle to Congressional passage the concern

Explanation:

Option A is wrong because of the use of "being". Using being as the modifier is incorrect and inappropriate for the sentence.

Option B uses "a concern" as if it is only a specific concern, but it is not a concern, instead it should have used "the", and hence it is wrong.

Option D is wrong because of its use of “an obstacle to congressional passage”. This acts more like an appositive and does not provide any sensible meaning that implies that the concern is "an obstacle to congressional passage"

Option E is also wrong because it uses "it", which does not refer to anything in the sentence.

Option C is the correct answer despite it cites AS XY.
