To turn a deaf ear to
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. To refuse to listen and consider.
The idiom "to turn a deaf ear to" means to deliberately ignore or refuse to listen to something, especially advice, requests, or complaints.
It doesn't involve physical hearing issues, so options like "to have an ear ache" or "to become deaf" don't fit. "To refuse to listen and consider" best captures the intended meaning, as it conveys the act of intentionally disregarding something.
