A) less apt to become nervous... than a classic piece Illogical comparison. Seems to imply a classic piece could become nervous
B) less... as to Nope. The idiom is "less than."
C) Same problem as A.
D) less apt to become nervous before performing [x].... than before performing [y] Looks good. Appropriate comparison. Nice parallel construction.
E) No antecedent for "they."

The answer is D
