This statement is false. Polly begins her email by listing some of "the more ridiculous suggestions" she received. She then goes on to list the ones that did "catch (her) eye". This indicates that she considered at least some of the suggestions she received. Polly seriously considered both the "Secret Santa" and "Christmas card recycling box" initiatives proposed by Luna.
This statement is false. Polly writes that she will be placing recycling bins "throughout" the office, meaning that she will be putting recycling bins "all over" or "in several places" within the office. In this context, when she says "the office", she is referring to the whole space in which everyone works. This is different from "her office", which refers to the smaller space in which only Polly works.
This statement is false. Polly writes that "the presents will be handed out by "Santa" just before Bruno's "end of year" speech." As is the case with many CEO's, Bruno will be giving a speech at the Christmas party but he will not be giving out any presents as this is "Santa's" job. Santa refers to "Santa Claus" or "Father Christmas", that jolly, bearded, morbidly obese man who wets our whistle during the Christmas season.
This is a true statement. Polly writes that one or two of the staff's suggestions got her attention. She then goes on to list Luna's suggestions (for a Christmas party and gift exchange) as the only ones which interested her.
This is a true statement. Polly writes, "You will then be required to buy a Christmas gift for the person you selected". The term "required" signals that buying a present is mandatory or obligatory.

This sentence is correct. To "be required to do something" is to "need to do it", or "to be obliged to do it". Another example: "You are required to apply a month in advance if you wish to attend my training session".
"Require" is used correctly in this sentence. To "require that someone do something" is to "need them to do it". Note that we need the subjunctive form of the second verb in this construction. Another example: "We require that you be silent during the President's speech".
This sentence is incorrect. It should read "I'd like to inquire about your subscription prices". To "inquire about" something is to "ask for information about it". Here's another example: "I inquired about the possibility of opening a bank account".
This sentence uses "require" correctly. The construction "it requires..." is used to say that something is "necessary" or "needed". Here's another example of this construction: "It requires more effort to frown than to smile".
"Require" is used correctly here. If a person "requires something", they "need" it. Let's look at another example: "Bruno requires more information about Mr Wang before he decides what action to take".

This statement is false. We read in the text that the spacecraft flies "beyond the Earth's atmosphere". In this context, the "limit (of a place)" is synonymous with the "edge" of it, but not beyond it. The limit of the Earth's atmosphere is situated at an altitude of 100km or 330,000 feet and is called the Kármán Line.
This statement is true. According to the advertisement, "participants are required to be in good health and free from high blood pressure, heart, back or neck problems". The term "required" signals that it is obligatory to be in good health if you want to participate in the space trip.
This statement is false. The advertisement does not refer to the price of the space trip. We do not know if the trip is affordable or cheap.

required: "Mandatory" means "necessary" or "required". In her email, Polly writes that a seminar to instruct the staff about the proper uses of office equipment is obligatory.

This statement is true. Icarus says that every Friday, his "presence is required at a local accountancy club".
This statement is true. Polly is looking for paperclips on the floor when Icarus enters her office. "Paperclips" are usually made of wire or plastic and hold pieces of paper together, don't confuse them with "staples" which are "U"-shaped and hold pieces of paper in a more permanent way.
This is the only statement which is not true. Icarus has a minor issue about Casual Dress Day, not Polly.
