我选了B, 答案是A, B结构和A一样,

likely后要跟to do
Choice A is best. Choice B lacks the necessary infinitive after likely. In B and C, disadvantaged, which often means “hampered by substandard economic and social conditions,” is less precise than at a disadvantage. In C and D, cannot often carry out suggests that a President with limited time suffers only from an inability to achieve legislative goals frequently, not from a frequent inability to achieve them at all. In C, liable, followed by an infinitive, can legitimately be used to express probability with a bad outcome, but C is otherwise flawed as noted. D’s liable and E’s unable should be followed by an infinitive rather than by a relative clause beginning with that
