Which choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?

A

than milk chocolate

B

milk chocolate candy

C

of milk chocolate

D

other milk chocolate

Correct Answer: A

Choice A is the best answer. The comparison is between "dark chocolate" (subject) and "milk chocolate" (noun). The phrase "more bitter taste than milk chocolate" correctly completes the comparison.

Choice B is incorrect because it lacks the comparative word "than." Choice C is incorrect because "of" does not establish a comparison. Choice D is incorrect because it lacks "than."
