• D. but it should have been linked less
• E. No correction required.

Answer 1

The correct option is D but it should have been linked less

The sentence is affirmative. So, we should use 'should' after 'it' otherwise it will be an interrogative one.
Eg: This medicine has helped but it should have been taken earlier.
