The correct answer is: A. They were laughing at the clown.
The sentence “The clown was being laughed at by them” is in the passive voice. In the passive voice, the subject of the sentence is acted upon by the verb. In this case, the clown is the subject and is being acted upon by the verb “laughed at.” The verb “laughed at” is a transitive verb, which means that it requires a direct object. The direct object of the verb “laughed at” is “them.” Therefore, the sentence “The clown was being laughed at by them” means that “them” were laughing at the clown.
