IMO A.

I dont know if I can explain this, but I'll try...

‘To try and recover’ is not correct ..you cannot try and do something
B changes the meaning of the sentence. We have to try to recover; we donot have to recover....

I had also selected B initially :(

I can understand why B is not the right choice.
How did you eliminate C and E?

Can someone please explain why C and D are wrong? It is not crystal clear to me. Second question, Is "THIS" a pronoun ? If the answer is yes, then what (noun, clause ..etc.) can be the antecedent for "THIS" ?

IDIOM is "try to" so both B and D are INCORRECT

Both C and E are incorrect because of lack of parallelism. The sentence has a parallel structure.

"It may some day....,but at present"

Hope that helps!
