Sentence Correction

Similar to rising interest rates, consumer and producer prices have been rising.





A Similar to rising interest rates, consumer and producer prices have been rising.
B Consumer and producer prices have been rising, as have interest rates.
C As interest rates are rising, so have consumer and producer prices.
D Consumer and producer prices have been rising, like interest rates do.
E Consumer and producer prices, as interest rates, have been rising.


why is the answer n i would guess e looking at keeping the ing constant

C, d, e sounds like incorrect english.

I guess B sounds more condensed than A. Plus we have rising twice in the same sentence. So repetitive.
