Best answer
Correct option is (D) about
What are you worrying about?
Answer: (D) about — "What are you worrying about?"
The verb worry is followed by the preposition about when we mention the cause of the worry: "She is worrying about her exams", "Don't worry about me". In a question beginning with What, the preposition goes to the end of the sentence, giving "What are you worrying about?"
"Worry to", "worry with" and "worry for" are not used in this sense ("worried for" is sometimes heard about a person's safety, but the standard pattern with what is "worrying about").
