Solution

The correct option is A Control
'Curb' means to put a check or restraint on something.
"plans to introduce tougher curbs on insider dealing"
In this context, curb means to control. So, all government efforts to control or curb inflation in Turkey have been unsuccessful. Hence, option B is correct and the other options are incorrect as they do not provide the appropriate meaning of the underlined word as per the context.
