Solution

The correct option is A B
Part B of the sentence is incorrect because 'voracity' means devouring great quantities of food; it has to be replaced with 'veracity' which means habitual truthfulness or accuracy. Hence option B is the correct answer.
Options A, C and D are incorrect because the rest of the sentence is grammatically correct.
Option E is incorrect because there is an error in the sentence.
