can anyone explain?

An unusually strong cyclist can, it is hoped, provide enough power to set a new distance record for human-powered aircraft in MIT’s diaphanous construction of graphite fiber and plastic.
(A) can, it is hoped, provide enough power to set
(B) it is hoped, can provide enough power that will set
(C) hopefully can provide enough power, this will set
(D) is hopeful to set
(E) hopes setting

b) "it is hoped" should be set off by a set of comma - heance wrong
c) hopefully - can't modify the whole sentence
d) / e) : distores the meaning of the sentence

hence (A) is correct.

B and C also use incorrect tenses (will). C is a run-on. E is a fragment.

i think A is misplacing the "it is hoped" thing
i would go with D, but then again if D was the correct answer than the cyclist shoudl be defined person and here its just "an unusially strong cyclist".

so which one is correct?

I really don't think this is a great question... but if I had to pick, I'd pick A. D changes the intent of the sentence.

C; in this choice the word "this" is misleading and doesn't fit
D&E alter the meaning of the sentence
Amongst A & B, A is better

Could you please tell me why do you think the tenses are wrong in the B and C/ is it because of hoped will should be "would" but can is present tense...could you please explain

Also one important thing guyz!!! Use of the word 'Hopefully' is almost always banned the GMAT world. It is clearly mentioned in the Sahil's notes...
IT IS TIME TO BEAT THE GMAT

LEARNING, APPLICATION AND TIMING IS THE FACT OF GMAT AND LIFE AS WELL... KEEP PLAYING!!!
