Choice.A

As we have accepted the job offer in London, we will relocate to London next month.

The sentence "As we have accepted the job offer in London, we will relocate to London next month" is correct. This construction maintains a consistent past-present relationship. The use of "have accepted" (present perfect tense) indicates that the action of accepting the job offer is completed and has relevance to the present moment. The second part of the sentence, "we will relocate," is in the future tense, indicating a planned action to occur after the acceptance of the job offer.

No change

6

Choice.B

As we have accepted the job offer in London, we will be relocate to London next month.

The sentence " As we have accepted the job offer in London, we will be relocate to London next month. " is incorrect because the phrase "As we have accepted the job offer" uses the present perfect tense to indicate an action completed in the past (accepting the offer). The verb "relocate" is in the future tense ("we will be relocate"), which doesn’t match the timeline established by "have accepted."

be relocate to London +

7

Choice.C

As we have accepted the job offer in London, we will be relocating London next month.

As we have accepted the job offer in London, we will be relocating London next month. The sentence " As we have accepted the job offer in London, we will be relocating London next month." is incorrect because of "Missing preposition". The verb "relocating" needs a preposition to indicate the destination. In this case, to correct the sentence, you should use "to" before "London."

be relocating London

Choice.D

As we have accepted the job offer in London, we will be relocated in London next month.

The sentence "As we have accepted the job offer in London, we will be relocated in London next month" is grammatically incorrect. The verb "relocated" is in the passive voice, but it’s not appropriately constructed in the sentence.
