The correct answer is ‘B’. It has to do with the forms of parts of speech. In this case, advice(noun) fits the gaps but not advise(verb) cannot fit according to its intended use in the sentence. The word ‘advice’ simply means ‘an opinion recommended or offered, as worthy to be followed; counsel. The other option, A, D, C are incorrectly arranged.
