A Correct answer
Explanation

'Amend' means to modify, improve, or correct for better - to make changes to improve something. 'Reform' is the closest synonym, meaning to improve or change for the better. 'Practice' and 'Active' are unrelated, and while 'Correct' is related, 'Reform' better captures the comprehensive improvement aspect of amending.
