Sentence: Many of them work in companies founded by their husbands or families.

[Ilovepsycho]

1.Though many European contries can boast of having a number of female top executives, many of them work in companies _________ their husbands or families.

a. impoverished by
b. compelled by
c. interrupted
d. founded by
e. imposed upon

I think the answer is D, but somebody say to me that's B!
Would you tell me why D is correct, and why B is not correct?

In additional, I am wondering whether a sentence 'Compelled by their husbands, many women work in business.' is gramatically correct or not.
If that is not correct, would you also tell me why not?

[Kitosdad]

B is wrong. To be compelled is to be forced.

D is correct. The husband is the founder of the company.

You sentence too is correct.

Kitos.
