The new CEO's policies were not conducive ______ a positive work environment.
Answer:
to
Rule: Prepositional Collocation. The adjective 'conducive' is always followed by the preposition 'to'. This is a fixed grammatical collocation. Therefore, 'conducive to' is the only correct phrasing. Options (a) 'for', (c) 'with', and (d) 'in' are grammatically incorrect pairings with the word 'conducive'.

Despite the initial setbacks, the team ______ to finish the project ahead of schedule.
Answer:
managed
Rule: Simple Past Tense for Completed Actions. This rule is used for actions that started and finished at a specific time in the past. The sentence describes a completed event (finishing the project). 'Managed' correctly places this action in the past. Option (b) 'had managed' is the past perfect tense, which is incorrect as it would require another past action to relate to (e.g., 'By the time the supervisor checked, the team had managed...'). Option (c) 'was managing' is the past continuous tense, suggesting an ongoing action in the past, which doesn't fit the context of a completed project. Option (d) 'manages' is in the simple present tense, which is incorrect for a past event.
