Nakool Please tell me why they have not chosen (a). I am not clear on what the instructions for this exercise are, but 'profound' is not really an improvement over 'deep' in that sentence; it is just an alternative. If there is any difference at all, 'profound' might be considered to mean 'very deep'.
