69. Although she had signed a pledge of abstinence while being an adolescent. Frances Willard was 35 years old before she chose to become a temperance activist.

(A) while being an adolescent

(B) while in adolescence

(C) at the time of her being adolescent

(D) as being in adolescence

(E) as an adolescent

Key is E. But I can not figure out why B is not correct. "while (she was )in adolesence" should have no grammar fallacy.

while引导从句，as引导介词短语，后者比前者简洁；另：ETS也说了B这种表达不复合习惯，语法正确不意味着就是合适的表达，打个比方：‘是好人，你’这个表达在中文的语法上也不错，但是更为合适的表达应该是‘你是好人’
