The sentence requires a would verb (subjunctive?). Only A and B does that.
A is better as they does not have an antecedent in B.
So I guess Answer is A

Read the non underlined part. IF hypothetical condition , THEN would (maybe in future).
Over here then condition is first, if condition is later.
This is very hard to figure .
It's like THEN( maybe omitted ) , IF condition.
C D and E ----> out
Between A and B
B is out because of " for preventing " usage.
This action was taken for a purpose,so TO-form is preferable over For-form.
A is the answer.
