解説 · Why

〜てならない expresses an overwhelming, uncontrollable feeling: 心配でならなかった ("I couldn't help worrying").

誤答 · Why the other options are wrong

にすぎなかった — 〜にすぎない ("no more than") does not fit an uncontrollable feeling.

どころではなかった — 〜どころではない ("no time for ~") changes the meaning.

までもなかった — 〜までもない ("no need to ~") does not fit.
