First, restating the scenario helps focus on the core facts: the airport elevation is 4,000 feet, and the density altitude is 3,250 feet. In aviation terms, density altitude reflects how dense the air behaves; lower density altitude means denser air than the standard atmosphere at the same elevation.
Option 1: False. This would be incorrect because the statement asserts better-than-standard take-off performance, which occurs when the air is denser (lower density altitude) than standard. A higher or equal density altitude would reduce performance, not improve it.
Option 2: True. Since the density altitude (3,250 ft) is lower than the actual elevation (4,000 ft), the air is effectively denser than standard for that elevation. Denser air provides more engine thrust (in piston engines), more lift on wings, and better propeller efficiency, all contributing to improved take-off performance compared with standard conditions at the same field elevation. 
To connect the concepts, recognize that density altitude accounts for temperature, pressure, and humidity effects on air density. A density altitude of 3,250 ft implies performance closer to a cooler, higher-pressure environment, which helps you achieve a shorter takeoff roll and better climb performance than standard conditions at 4,000 ft.
In summary, the situation describes improved-than-standard take-off performance due to the lower density altitude relative to the field elevation, making the True option the appropriate choice.
