Option B correctly uses the gerund phrase 'being taken' to express the passive form that matches the original sentence's meaning. It is the grammatically correct and natural way to convey the idea in passive voice. Other options are either ungrammatical or awkward.

The phrase "Eat anyone's salt" is an idiomatic expression meaning to be willing to be someone's guest or accept their hospitality. Option A correctly reflects this meaning.

Both "Dark" and "Gloomy" are synonyms of "Murky," as they all describe something dim, unclear, or lacking brightness. Therefore, option D, which includes both A and B, is the correct answer.

The word 'soporific' means tending to induce sleep or causing drowsiness. Among the options, 'hypnotic' is most similar in meaning as it relates to inducing sleep or trance-like states. The other options have different meanings: 'meteoric' relates to meteors or rapid rise, 'phlegmatic' means unemotional or calm, and 'sadistic' refers to deriving pleasure from inflicting pain.

Option C correctly changes the active sentence 'You must obey your parents' into the passive voice as 'Your parents must be obeyed by you.' This is the proper passive construction with 'must' + 'be' + past participle.

The antonym of 'Euphony,' which means pleasant or harmonious sound, is 'Cacophony,' meaning a harsh, discordant mixture of sounds. The other options are unrelated to the meaning of 'Euphony.'

The correct article is 'The' because 'school gate' refers to a specific, known location. 'The' is used before specific or previously mentioned nouns.

The word "bibulous" means excessively fond of drinking alcohol. Both "boozy" and "sottish" are synonyms relating to being inclined to drink alcohol, so option D, "Both B & C," is correct.

The correct preposition to use with 'adhere' in this context is 'to'. The phrase 'adhere to the terms of the contract' means to follow or comply with the terms. Other options do not fit grammatically or idiomatically.

Option B correctly converts the active sentence into the passive voice, maintaining the present simple tense and the original meaning. It uses the correct passive structure: 'I am greeted cheerfully by them every morning.'
