Choose the answer which best rewords the underlined portion. If you think the original wording is best, choose option A.

Unemployment is considered to be a problem even though inflation is considerably low.
  1. is considered to be
  2. is likely
  3. is
  4. should be
Explanation
Answer: C - The best choice is “is”

Setting aside excess words in a sentence can enhance sentence clarity. Removing the phrase “considered to be” does not change the intended meaning of the sentence. “Likely” is an unnecessary word and “should be” does not fit within the context of the sentence.
