The governor’s team of advisors, including her education and political strategists, has not been available for comment since the release of her controversial education reform proposal.


has not been available for comment since the release of her controversial education reform proposal

have not been available for comment since the governor released her controversial education reform proposal

has not been available to make comments since releasing her proposal on controversial education reform

have not been available for comment since releasing her controversial education reform proposal

has not been available to make comments since the release of her proposal on controversial reform in education
解释:The singular subject in the original sentence, “the governor’s team,” needs to agree with the singular verb phrase “has not been.” Also, there is a difference in meaning between "controversial education reform proposal" and "Proposal on controversial education reform." It is the proposal that is controversial, not education reform.
  
(A) CORRECT. This choice contains no errors.

(B) The subject-verb relationship is incorrect. The singular subject of the sentence, “the governor’s team,” does not agree with the plural verb phrase “have not been.”

(C) "Since releasing" implies that this action was performed by the subject of the clause -- in other words, that the team of advisors, not the governor herself, released the governor's proposal. Also, the phrase “her proposal on controversial education reform” changes the original meaning. This phrasing implies that the education reform is controversial; however, it is clear from the original sentence that the governor’s proposal, not education reform itself, is controversial. Finally, "to make comments" is not as concise as the original "for comment".

(D) The subject-verb relationship is incorrect. The singular subject of the sentence, “the governor’s team,” does not agree with the plural verb phrase “have not been.” Also, "since releasing" implies that this action was performed by the subject of the clause -- in other words, that the team of advisors, not the governor herself, released the governor's proposal.

(E) The phrase “her proposal on controversial reform in education” changes the original meaning. This phrasing implies that the education reform is controversial; however, it is clear from the original sentence that the governor’s proposal, not education reform itself, is controversial. Additionally, "to make comments" is not as concise as the original "for comment".

The correct answer is A.
