The given incomplete sentence in this passage needs an auxiliary "be" verb in the formation of a passive present sentence. Therefore, Option B is the correct answer. Whereas option A contains the past form of the verb, option C contains plural verb which does not go with singular subject and option D contains the past form of plural verb. Therefore, option B, having a present form of singular verb, completes the given sentence appropriately.
