Hmm, looks like this SC ended up on the CR forum. Not a problem, as it is off to SC forum after this post :).

So... we have 'team', which is a collective noun and is therefore singular ('teams' would be plural).

We can eliminate (B) and (C) because of 'have.' ('team have' is INCORRECT)

Someone of something (team, in this case) is available FOR comment. Out with (E).

The difference between (A) and (D) is subtle. One has 'she' and the other has 'governor.' Many may drawn to 'she' as we already know the governor is a she (her education...). However, when we have a pronoun we need a clear antecedent. The antecedent should be a noun that clearly refers to the pronoun. In this sentence, we need the NOUN governor for the PRONOUN she. All we get is governor's team (which clearly is not a person).

That leaves us with (A) the answer.

Since we can't use 'she' we have to use 'governor.' And remember - we are not being redundant. This is the first use of 'governor' in the sentence.

Hope that makes sense :)

IMO A

B/C - have is wrong as the subject is singular
E - available to comment is not idiomatic

Between A/D - its pronoun issue - D uses 'she', which doesn't have clear antecedent.
Getting defeated is just a temporary notion, giving it up is what makes it permanent.
