    A upstaring Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B complying Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C procuring Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D spearheading Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E clucking Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The word "spearheading" means leading or directing an effort, which makes sense in this context where Mr. Musk is involved in efforts to cut government spending. The other options are incorrect:"Upstaring" isn't a word in this context."Complying" means following or adhering to something, which doesn’t fit here."Procuring" means obtaining or acquiring, which doesn’t fit the idea of leading an effort."Clucking" refers to the sound a chicken makes, and is clearly irrelevant to the sentence.Therefore, "spearheading" is the correct choice.
