This is the only statement here which uses the verb "to win" incorrectly. In English, we never use "to win" in the sense of "earning" or "making" money. It is possible "to win" money through a contest or lottery, but when you work for money, you "earn" or "make" money.

This is a correct choice. "To win" is often used to describe the outcome of political contests such as elections or debates. Example: Mr Flair won the argument about unemployment.
This is a correct choice. "To win" (win/won/won) means to come first in a competition or contest. The person who wins is the winner!
This is an incorrect choice. When you work for money, you "earn" or "make" money - you never "win" money. Example: Some lawyers earn 500 dollars per hour!

This statement is false. Philip actually compliments Susie's sales abilities, and says that she has good "business acumen", meaning that she possesses good business instincts.
This statement is true. Philip writes that Susie's marketing strategy is a "real winner", meaning he believes that her marketing ideas are good.
This statement is true. Philip writes that the team "may even turn a profit". The expression "to turn a profit" means to make money on an operation or product. Profit describes the money earned after expenses (such as packaging, advertising, distribution, etc.)

1 openings: "Openings" is the best term to complete this sentence. An "opening (at a company)" is a "vacancy" or "opportunity". In other words, there are positions available in the administrative department of this company. In the radio programme, Jason talks about "a wide variety of openings" in South Australia at the moment, meaning that there are lots of different positions available.
1 earnings: This is not the right answer. "Earnings" are the money you "earn" or "make", usually by working at a job. "Earnings" has a similar meaning to "salary" or "wages", and does not make sense here.
1 surf instructors: This is not the right answer. A "surf instructor" is someone who teaches you how to surf (with a board and a wetsuit in the sea!). It does not make sense to put a job title here.
1 livings: This is not the right answer. To "do something for a living" is to do it professionally, as a job, in order to support yourself financially. This does not make grammatical or logical sense here!
2 earn: "Earn" is the correct answer here. We "earn money" at work. Example: "I don't know exactly how much money my wife earns, but it's a lot!". Note that the term "earn" rhymes with "turn".
2 win: This is incorrect. We can "win money" in a competition or lottery, but not by doing a job.
2 work: To "work" is to "labour", for example at a job. This does not make sense here.
2 offer: To "offer (someone some money)" is to propose to give them some money. This does not make sense here.
3 holiday: "Holiday" is the term we were looking for here. A "holiday" (UK) is the same as a "vacation" (US). Both of these terms refer to time away from work or school, spent resting on a beach for example. Example: "I will be on holiday for the next two weeks. Please contact my colleague James if you need urgent assistance".
3 vacancies: This is incorrect. A "vacancy" is an "opening", an "opportunity", or an "availability". None of these terms makes sense here. Perhaps you were thinking of the American term "vacation", which means the same thing as "holiday".
3 openings: This is incorrect. An "opening (at a company)" is a "vacancy" or "opportunity". This does not make sense here.
3 business expenses: This is incorrect. "Business expenses" refers to money you spend while doing your job (lunch with a client, etc.). Usually, this money will be reimbursed by your employer.
4 looking for: This is the correct choice. In job advertisements, we often use "to look for" to describe the type of person required for a role. Examples: "The Delavigne Corporation is looking for a new salesperson to join its successful team", "We're looking for well-qualified candidates".
4 searching: This is incorrect for two reasons! Firstly, we "search FOR (something, someone)". Secondly, "to search for something" is to "hunt for" it or "thoroughly investigate or check". Example: "I've searched the whole house for my pen".
4 researching: This is not the right choice. To "research" is to "study closely" or to "conduct an academic investigation". Example: "I'm researching the effect of smoking on young men".
