(A) As the former

(B) The former

(C) Former

(D) She was

(E) As the

解释中，“(A) as the former chair… for 18 consecutive years不符合逻辑，”

不好意思，刚找到前人的贴子。解释如下：

道题关键是在 for 18 consecutive years.  作chairman for 18 years是可以理解的， 可以没有一个职位是“former chairman" 的。 所以逻辑上不对。 而且后面的 a board member 也没有说 a former board member.
