To get this one right, you have to be careful to not get sucked in by the seeming correctness of some of the answer choices.
For instance, choice A seems to correctly compare '"ordinary" chocolate' with "white chocolate". However, "As is" does not match "contains".
Choice B seems to compare the ways in which the two types of chocolate are made, but actually is nonsensical.
'Like the way in which "ordinary" chocolate ... is made, the way in which white chocolate is similar to it ..."
Similar to what? Are the methods similar to each other? to something else?
So, there is plenty to catch in this question.
