Answer:
:
'Pick up' is used in situations where one picks an object or a skill. In sentence A, the correct term should be 'picked' instead of 'picked up'. In sentence D, the subject (Candidates) should follow the question word ( Why ) rather than the auxillary verb 'should'. So the correct sentence is 'Why the candidates should be afraid.....'.
Sentences B and C are correct.
