Bleached, enriched flour,

by himu » Tue Mar 05, 2013 8:16 pm
A
Bleached, enriched flour, almost like sugar's nutritional value, and much more likely to appear in foods labeled "sugar-free."
B
Bleached, enriched flour is almost more devoid of nutritional value than sugar, and much more than likely to appear in foods labeled "sugar-free."
C
Bleached, enriched flour's nutritional value is nearly as low as that of sugar, and this type of flour is much more likely to appear in foods labeled "sugar-free."
D
Bleached, enriched flour is almost as equivalently low in nutritional value as sugar, and much more likely than appearing in foods labeled "sugar-free."
E
Sugar's nutritional value is even lower than that of bleached, enriched flour, and much more likely to appear in foods labeled "sugar-free."

A is wrong because compares flour with nutritional values.
B is wrong " much more than likely" is too wordy.
C is correct.
D is wrong "much more like than appearing" does not make sense.
E is wrong because the subject is "Sugar's nutritional value" (...)which is "much more likely to appear in foods labeled "sugar-free."

@Zarrolou : the main problem with B is the ambiguity in meaning .its not clear as to whether Bleached, enriched flour is almost more devoid of nutritional value than sugar is
or
Bleached, enriched flour is almost more devoid of nutritional value than of sugar

in fact in most of these choices but C comparison is faulty

we can compare flour with sugar and flour's nutriotnal value with sugar's nutritional value so C is the only option that is right!
