As the former chair of the planning board for 18 consecutive years and a board member for 28 years, Joan Philkill attended more than 400 meetings and reviewed more than 700 rezoning applications.

(A) As the former

(B) The former

(C) Former

(D) She was

(E) As the

请教大家，为什么有former就不对了？ prep笔记上说“不合逻辑”，为什么呢？ 谢谢

句意就已表述JP这个人已任职连续18年的主席

再使用Former累赘多余啰嗦!!!

former与for 18 years矛盾了

不好意思，还是不明白

题目的意思是说JP这个人现在还在任chair吗？

这个部份纯作修饰JP这个人,句意重点不在此人到底是否为Chair而是就ETS而言使用Former再加18 consecutive years是累赘多余为标准中式英语表达………

逻辑意思问题。

the former chairman for 18 years, 意为当了十八年的前主席了。

Hence, it doesn't make any sense, and is wrong.

谢谢yuching730和遥遥G梦，没有时差的话，凌晨4点多给我解答问题，我真的要感动到哭了

这题我终于明白了，再不明白也不好意思了  谢谢！
