Being born in Calcutta in 1940 and having been a United States citizen since 1988, author Bharati Mukherjee
Having been born in Calcutta in 1940 and being a United States citizen since 1988, author Bharati Mukherjee
D: Being born in Calcutta in 1940...
E: Having been born in Calcutta in 1940...
In these options, the words in red can be omitted without any loss of meaning, as illustrated by the OA:
Born in Calcutta in 1940, author Bharati Mukherjee became a United States citizen in 1988.
In the OA, the intended sequence -- that Bharati was born in Calcutta in 1940 BEFORE she became a US citizen in 1988 -- is crystal clear.
Since the words in red are not needed, eliminate D and E.
