    A pestering her for food Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B that her children began Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Barely had she entered Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The erroneous part is 'her home that her children'. Here, in the given sentence the most appropriate substitution is 'than'. The conjunction used after ''barely'' is ''when''. "Barely" is used to show that one thing happened immediately after another thing.
