Here "afraid" is a verb and "be" should come b4 a verb (afraid here) alwys. Dats why A is d right answer. If we use "do the candidate be" will fully change d meaning of the given sentence.

I didn't clear why say this is statement even why included in starting sentence.

Its a statement as full-stop is given at the end of the sentence. It is not asked but told by someone why the candidates should.

As the sentence is followed by a full stop it cannot be a question. Only option a fits as a sentence whereas all the other options make it a question.

In interrogative sentence the verb comes first followed by subject and object so correct answer is should the candidates be afraid of.

Pravin said:   1 decade ago
This is just a statement not the interrogative sentence so option A is correct.

Why not option C?

Nandani said:   1 decade ago
Why can't it be option C as it would be more option than option A?

Always subject should come first, after the wh word.
