take a closer look at choice C, we can see there is no verb, how it could be true.

is this structure correct? the more + N + Verb, the more + N + Verb

Choice C: the greater + N but no verb, I do not think it's right

I dont think your analysis is correct .

The sentence has one main subject and one main verb . Lets analyze

Dr. Hakuta's research[subject] among Hispanic children in the United States indicates [verb]that

Now what his research indicates are 2 things :

1.the more the children use both Spanish and English

2.the greater their intellectual advantage in skills underlying reading ability and nonverbal logic

These two things need to be parallel .

Now lets look what would happen if we introduce a verb in 2 nd part .

The sentence will be a clause . And the sentence before the comma is also a clause . So we can not join two clauses just by a comma - that will be a run on sentence .
"Know thyself" and "Nothing in excess"
