Dear Friends,

Here is a detailed explanation to this question-



Choice A: This answer choice maintains proper comparison and tense use, conveys the intended meaning of the sentence, and is quite concise. Thus, this answer choice is correct.

Choice B: The use of "just as", in this answer choice, is unnecessary and makes the sentence needlessly wordy. Thus, this answer choice is not a very good one.

Choice C: This answer choice incorrectly utilizes the future tense, rather than the simple present tense, while describing a universal truth; doing so also leads to a parallelism break with "had". Thus, this answer choice is incorrect.

Choice D: This answer choice repeats the tense-related error found in Option C. Thus, this answer choice is incorrect.

Choice E: This answer choice suffers from a meaning error, as it compares "the same appeal" to "a professional musician" due to the omission of the verb "to".

Hence, A is the best answer choice.
