OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
B
The first word of the underlined portion should not be singular, since it refers to all three items in the preceding list. Thus, (C) and (D) can be eliminated. The phrase "were an impression", which opens (E), is extremely unidiomatic, so (E) can eliminated as well.
If you focus only on the beginning of the underlined portion, (B) is preferable to (A), as (B) does not employ the passive voice. This is a subtle distinction, but the sort of thing that makes one answer superior to another on a di¢ cult question. Also, "also was acknowledged" is preferable to "was also acknowledged", since there was no previous "was" in the sentence, and "also was acknowledged" put the entire verb ("was acknowledged") in one place. Choice (B) is correct.
