The correct answer is (A). The original, while not a wonderful sentence, is
not wrong. (B) omits the standard of judging benefit (general welfare). (C)
leaves aside all consideration of benefit and focuses only on the feasibility of the
project. (D) is perhaps second best, though a little convoluted. However, it omits the
certainty that the project could be accomplished. (E) incorrectly refers to the happiness
of the individuals, while the original referred to the general welfare, which
might not be the same thing at all.
