I chose A as the right answer.
The trick to answering this question is the ability to recognize that you are dealing with a command subjunctive. Once you are able to spot it, then you would realize that the sentence has to have the structure: Subject+bossy verb+that+noun+bare verb form+infinitive or subject+bossy verb+noun+infinitive. The non-underlined already has the subject(President Carter), the bossy verb(urged), that, and the noun (women). So we know that this question tests the correct usage of the first structure. The question specifically tests the form of the verb after the noun, since that is the part of the sentence underlined.
A is left as the right answer.

Everything is fine. I see no errors. The verb after the noun women as well as men be required is rightly in the bare form. Keep A.
Quote:
We don't need the infinitive after the noun women as well men. We need the bare form of the verb be not to be. Eliminate B.
Quote:
B also erroneously use the infinitive form to be after the noun women as well men. The bare form of the verb is required. Eliminate C.
Quote:
We don't need should to precede the bare verb be. Only the bare verb form is required after the noun women as well men. Eliminate D.
Quote:
Once again the infinitive form after the noun women as well men is incorrect. Eliminate E.
A is left as the right answer.
