Magoosh Official Explanation:
A question about the role of ombudsman.
The correct idiom for hiring somebody is to bring this person “on staff.” Only (A) gets this idiom correct.
Also, the word “lest” is most often followed by a clause with the verb in the subjunctive. Here, the correct use of the subjunctive is “lest he be seen.” Again, (A) gets it correct. The “so that” clause in (E) would be correct also.
The best answer is (A).

Wow this question is QUITE hard!
Can someone explain how to discard the other options in detail? Apart from the idiom, is the 2nd part of the other alternatives right or not?
Thanks in advance,
Kevin
