After several years of rapid growth, the healthy care company became one of the largest health care providers in the metropolitan area, while it then proved unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in its payment to doctors and hospitals.

A. while it then proved unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in its payment to
B. while it then proved unable to handle the increase in business and fell months behind in its payment to
C. but then it proved unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in its paying
D. but then proving unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in paying
E. but then proved unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in paying
答案选e,但是我觉得d更为对称一点,求大虾们解释一下

主语是healthy care company,它只能被prove(proved),而不能主动proving
被动对,选E

D所代表的语法为定语从句,但你找不到proving所引导的定语从句会修饰的词;而E的proved(to be) unable to作谓语动词短语,符合原文需要。
