Explanation:

Correct Answer is (a).Penchant means desire/liking.
I. Mr. Xi’s penchant for the dominance of the party suggests that he will pack the politburo standing committee — the highest echelon of Chinese power — with officials loyal to his cause.
The statement is contextually and grammatically correct.
II. Mr. Xi’s penchant for the dominance of the party changed virtually all Provincial Party Secretaries in the months ahead of the 19th Congress, and appointments since the Congress have underlined his sway over personnel matters.
The statement seems disjointed and irregular. Mr Xi’s liking for dominance cannot by itself change Secretaries. His penchant would have led to the party changing all Secretaries. Hence, this is incorrect.
III. Mr. Xi’s penchant for the dominance of the party while he is positioning China as a defender of globalisation, it comes with a strong dose of mercantilism.
This is absurd and meaningless.
Hence, option A is correct.
