1. Our office security door is scheduled to ___ this week.

Explanation

“Be replaced” is correct because “scheduled to” must be followed by an infinitive form. Since the security door receives the action, the passive infinitive is needed. The sentence describes a planned maintenance action, not something the door will do itself. Therefore, “be replaced” is the only grammatically correct and meaningful choice in this workplace notice.

2.

What first name or nickname would you like us to use?

You may optionally provide this to label your report, leaderboard, or certificate.

2. The post office will close at 5 p.m. on Thursday ___ the holiday weekend.

Explanation

“Due to” is correct because it clearly shows the reason for the early closing. The holiday weekend is the cause of the schedule change. The other options do not express cause properly in this sentence. In workplace announcements and notices, “due to” is commonly used to explain closures, delays, or changes in operating hours.

Submit

3. If Tom Green resigns, Adam Lopez is expected to ___ him.

Explanation

“Succeed” is correct because it means to take over a position after someone leaves it. The sentence refers to Adam Lopez replacing Tom Green if Tom resigns. The other choices do not match this leadership or job-transition meaning. In business English, “succeed someone” is the standard verb for following another person in a position.

Submit

4. The company’s share price has ___ doubled since June.

Explanation

“More than” is correct because it modifies “doubled” to show the increase exceeded two times the original amount. The sentence is about financial growth, and “has more than doubled” is a natural business expression. The other options do not fit grammatically or logically before “doubled,” so they fail to express the intended degree of increase.

Submit

5. The company reported lower net income for five ___ quarters.

Explanation

“Consecutive” is correct because it means following one after another without interruption. The sentence describes five quarters in a row with lower net income. This is common financial reporting language. The other words do not accurately describe uninterrupted sequence, so they do not fit the meaning needed in a business performance statement.

Submit

6. LCG Corp. handles the manufacture, sale, and ___ of its appliances.

Explanation

“Distribution” is correct because it completes a logical list of business functions: manufacture, sale, and distribution. These are parallel nouns that describe how a company produces and delivers products. The other options do not fit the meaning of appliance operations. “Distribution” is the only choice that matches both the grammar and the business context.

Submit

7. Follow ___ steps on the first page of the manual.

Explanation

“All” is correct because the instruction tells the reader to follow every step on the first page. Technical directions usually require full compliance, not partial action. “Most of,” “much,” and “almost” do not work naturally before plural countable noun “steps” in this context. The sentence needs a complete and direct instruction, which “all” provides clearly.

Submit

8. Volunteer helpers work four hours a day ___ food and accommodation.

Explanation

“In exchange for” is correct because it shows what volunteers receive in return for their work. They give time and labor, and they receive food and accommodation. This phrase is commonly used when describing mutual arrangements. The other options are ungrammatical or unnatural, so they do not properly express the idea of compensation.

Submit

9. Discounted ___ for the Auto Show are valid on weekdays only.

Explanation

“Tickets” is correct because the sentence refers to multiple admission passes that are valid for the Auto Show. The adjective “discounted” naturally modifies a plural noun here. The other choices are incorrect word forms. In event and sales language, “discounted tickets” is the standard and most natural expression for reduced-price admission.

Submit

10. We at HTL are ___ that the new project will succeed.

Explanation

“Convinced” is correct because it functions as an adjective after the linking verb “are.” The sentence expresses confidence that the project will succeed. “Convincing” describes something persuasive, “convinces” is a verb, and “convincement” is not standard usage. “Be convinced that” is a common business structure for expressing strong belief or certainty.

Submit

11. The companies will be ___ new products at this year’s event.

Explanation

“Introducing” is correct because it follows “will be,” which requires the present participle for an ongoing future activity. The sentence describes what companies will do at their booths during the event. The other forms do not fit the tense structure. This is a standard way to describe planned activity at exhibitions and trade shows.

Submit

12. If you pay in cash, you can take advantage ___ a 5 percent discount.

Explanation

“Of” is correct because the fixed expression is “take advantage of.” It means to benefit from something, in this case a discount. The other prepositions do not form the correct idiom. Business English relies heavily on accurate verb-preposition combinations, and “take advantage of” is the only accepted phrase that fits this pricing sentence.

Submit

13. Every effort is ___ to solve the current problems.

Explanation

“Being made” is correct because the sentence is passive and describes action currently in progress. The focus is on the efforts, not on who is making them. “Is being made” is the correct passive continuous structure. The other options do not complete the verb phrase correctly, so they fail grammatically in this workplace problem-solving statement.

Submit

14. The school’s educational philosophy is based on the idea that children learn ___ hands-on activities.

Explanation

“Through” is correct because it expresses the method by which children learn. The philosophy says learning happens through hands-on activities, meaning by means of active involvement. The other options do not fit naturally here. In educational writing, “learn through experience” and similar patterns are common for describing practical or activity-based learning approaches.

Submit

15. The company sends invoices ___ from book orders unless requested otherwise.

Explanation

“Separately” is correct because it means the invoices are sent apart from the book orders. The sentence contrasts the normal procedure with an exception requested by the buyer. “Jointly,” “diversely,” and “partially” do not match that meaning. In order processing and billing, “sent separately” is a standard phrase used to describe separate documentation.
