Correct Answer: No improvement

Concept/Approach‘‘Get habituated to’’ + gerund is acceptable in formal English to suggest developing a steady habit. Alternatives either shift meaning or naturalness.

Option analysisused — ‘‘get used to’’ is idiomatic but slightly more informal/colloquial than ‘‘get habituated to’’ in this register.prepared — ‘‘get prepared to’’ changes meaning from habit to readiness.trained — Implies an external trainer; not the intent.No improvement — Best preserves formal tone and intended sense.

Verification/AlternativeAn equally fine rephrase is ‘‘cultivate the habit of reading and writing about current affairs.’’ The key is that no mandatory change is required.
