Correct Answer: worrying


Solution : The correct choice is the first option .

The word worrying is the most appropriate choice here because it conveys a sense of concern or anxiety. The sentence suggests that a prolonged decrease in Chinese consumption would be a more significant cause for concern than the existing trade dispute between the United States and China.

The meanings of other words are:

  • Imagining : This means forming a mental image or concept of something.
  • Delaying : This means being late or postponed.
  • Mobilising : This means preparing and organising troops for active service or a particular purpose.

Therefore, the complete sentence would be: "A sustained decline in Chinese consumption would be even more worrying than the current US-China trade dispute."
