OG12 #94的两点疑问

The recent surge in the number of airplane flights has
clogged the nation’s air-traffic control system, to lead
to 55 percent more delays at airports, and prompts
fears among some officials that safety is being
compromised.

(A) to lead to 55 percent more delays at airports,
and prompts
(B) leading to 55 percent more delay at airports and
prompting

这两个都是错误的。我的问题是：
1.把B中的delay改为delays 答案是不是就正确了呢？
2.infinitive前面一定不能加comma吗？

谢谢大家啦：）

delay改为delays, 仍然错，因为是导致了航班延误增加了55%以上。而不是55%以上的延误，事实上55%的延误是不符合逻辑的。

不定式前可以加逗号，比如不定式作独立成分时，给个例句：
I have a point there, to say the least.

把原句簡化一下為：The recent surge has clogged the nation's air-traffic constrol systme, leading to 55 percent more delays, and prompting fears that safe is being compromised. 我認爲 leading to和prompting fears 應為並列的結果狀語，都是由於recent surge而導致的結果， that做fear的同位語從句。
