Correct answer and explanation
Correct answer: No improvement
Explanation: The correct answer is B.✅ The phrase "Most of us" is grammatically correct when referring to a large portion of a countable group (in this case, people). ❌"More of us" would be used when comparing two quantities. ❌"Much of us" is incorrect because "much" is used with uncountable nouns. ❌"Lots many of us" is not a standard English expression.
