Yes nitzr7 if we use E,it would mean that the Olympic Games proclaimed a sacred truce.But a game/sport cannot proclaim anything,people can.That is why E is rejected.

Sometimes is an adverb, right? What does an adverb do?
It modifies a verb, or an adjective, or another adverb.
So, when an adverb is modifying a verb, that adverb has to be placed before the verb, unless the given verb is of the form 'be':-is/am/are/was/were/will.
So the correct form is '....but sometimes words fail me.'
Should there be a verb of 'be' form, like in this:
She is always this haughty.
And NOT: She always is this haughty.

so what about '.....but words sometimes fail me'
williambrown Saysso what about '.....but words sometimes fail me'
Oh, sorry. Was in a half-sleep mode. So couldn't get your doubt right.
'..but words sometimes fail me' is more sound. But that doesn't mean '..sometimes words fail me' is grammatically incorrect.
In the above two quoted phrases, the only difference lies in where you wish to place more emphasis.
If it's particularly on 'occasional failure' on words, place it right after words. ('..but words sometimes fail me')
If it's particularly on situations where words fail you, begin the phrase with sometimes. ('..sometimes words fail me')
But, yes, both are grammatically acceptable forms.
And 'b)' is the most appropriate use in the given context.
Had you used the adverb (sometimes) after the verb (fail), that would have been wrong.
Right back If doubt remains. 😃

"Jenny walks carefully to avoid falling" is it wrong then?
dreamsohini Says"Jenny walks carefully to avoid falling" is it wrong then?
No, it's right.
Carefully comes under adverb of manner which answers the question "How?", and are generally placed after the verb.
Similarly, sometimes belongs to adverb of frequency and AOF, as I earlier said, can come in any part of the sentence depending upon the emphasis you wish to put.
What I wish to say is that if we do not go too deep into the types of adverbs and all, the base or simplified rule is to use it before the verb.
But then, position of adverb is just not limited to the aforesaid simplified rule. It depends on the type of adverb, what kind of verb is there, et cetera.
So, yes, your quoted part is correct. :)
