Correct Answer: No improvement required


Solution : The correct choice is the second option .

Explanation : The sentence requires no improvement as it maintains the subject-verb agreement. In the case of "neither/nor", the verb agrees to the subject which is closest to it. In this case, it is singular. Hence, the singular verb "is" is the correct usage
