A & E are out. They does not fit here. No known noun it can replace. It is ambigious They
C wrong tense, was
D is wrong, to be found meaning it still needs to be found and getting compared at the same time with past fraud.

Only B survives it. It may not be grammatically best but for sure is GMATically Best.

Though "there" in D is most appropriate, "According to NSPE.. there is now..", B is framed better.
Lack of better choice makes me pick B

OA is D.

Explanation:

Alarm: The pronoun ・i>they・br> Rule(s): Must agree with its object and be unambiguous.

Since this pronoun refers to ・i>NSPE・it should be singular.

POE:
Eliminate A and any other choices that contain that error. Choice E repeats the error.

Compare the remaining choices to find any other commonly tested errors.

(B) there is far more ・now
(C) there was far more ・now
(D) there is now far more ・br>
The difference between the remaining choices is the verb tense. Choice C introduces an illogical phrase by suggesting that there was more now causing a conflict by introducing both the past and the present tense.

Between choices C and D, the difference is the use of it or not. since a magazine cannot find anything using it would be illogical and choice C should be eliminated.
