Hi prachich,

It doesn't make sense to be highly regarded "as the role." We would want to remove the word "role." Are you sure there is no mistake in the way you typed the question?

For example, is (E) supposed to say "will be HELD", or is "role" part of the sentence? Double-check.

as per sahil's notes :

regard as is the correct idiom C and D are out..

E is nonsensical, ()until the hold is replaced by held...then E becomes correct :D.

Otherwise, With the current options B wins :))
Cheers !!
