The correct option is B: new, overwhelming.
Adjectives are usually used to modify nouns. In this case, in the sentence "[although] the new students worked hard, they could barely keep up with the overwhelming amount of homework", "new" modifies "students" and "overwhelming" modifies "amount of homework".
The other options contain "barely" which is an adverb, not an adjective. Moreover, "hard" is also used as an adverb in the sentence. Adverbs such as "barely" modify a verb. That is to say, they add information about HOW an action is.

Explanation:
A preposition is a function word that usually precedes a noun or pronoun and that shows a relationship between that noun or pronoun and other words. There are many prepositions, some of them include <em>of, up, after, before, until, at, for, after </em>and<em> on.</em>
In the sentence, "of" is a preposition because it shows a relationship between the noun "the spirit" with the noun "invention". The other words, on the other hand, are not prepositions: "forever" is an adverb, and "but" and "and" are conjunctions.
