Correct Answer: (4)


Solution : The fourth option is the correct choice.

In the given sentence, the term tone-deaf is correctly used as it is an adjective that means someone is unable to hear or appreciate the difference between musical notes. It is also used metaphorically to describe someone who cannot sing well or has a poor sense of pitch.

Therefore, the correct answer would be: No Improvement.
