Exercice 1
Why is Luna not available to meet with Mr. Warbuckle?

Why is Luna not available to meet with Mr. Warbuckle?
Luna is directing the interview herself, she is not "being interviewed" by someone else.
Luna is busy conducting an interview which indicates that she is currently interviewing someone, and not "preparing" for one.
This is the best choice here. Luna is busy conducting an interview, and so she cannot meet with Mr. Warbuckle. To "conduct an interview" means to direct an interview.

Select the correct uses of the term to conduct.

There may be more than one correct answer!
This is an incorrect statement. A person applying for a job wouldn't "conduct an interview" with the employer. "To conduct (an interview)" is "to manage", "to direct" or to perform a leading role in one. Therefore the job of conducting usually falls to the employer who will usually ask questions and direct the topics for discussion.
This is an incorrect statement. It is not possible to "conduct a car", the verb "to drive" is most commonly applied here. Note that "to conduct" can mean "to accompany or to guide", for example: My job is to conduct tours for tourists around the main London monuments.
This is a correct usage of the term "to conduct". "To conduct oneself" shares a similar meaning with "to behave" (in the same way that the noun "conduct" is synonymous with "behaviour") or "to act in a certain manner". Example: The fans were hostile, but the footballers conducted themselves very well.
This is a correct usage of the term "to conduct". "To conduct (an orchestra)" is to control the musicians by using movements of the hand or a baton. The person who does this is called a "conductor".
This is a correct usage of the term "to conduct". "To conduct (a meeting, an interview)" is "to manage", "to direct" or to perform a leading role in one. Luna says that she will be "conducting telephone interviews with the candidates" meaning that, as HR director, she will be asking most of questions and controlling the interview.

Excerpt: Just to let you know that I'll be conducting telephone interviews with the candidates.
