1 The way things are: This is the correct choice. "As things stand" means "with the current situation" or "as things are at the moment". Another example of its use is: "The government has a lot of work to do because the general public is very dissatisfied with the situation as things stand.".
1 As you can see: Oops! This isn't the best choice here!
1 Unfortunately: This is incorrect. The term "unfortunately" is not synonymous with "as this stands". "Unfortunately" means "sadly", "regrettably" or "unluckily". Example: Unfortunately, my husband left me to live with a man.
2 incidentally: This is the correct answer. "Incidentally" is synonymous with "by the way". It indicates that you have extra information or something else to say that is not necessarily linked to the current topic, but which you are going to add as a side-note.
2 I almost forgot: This is not the right choice. "By the way" does not mean that you have forgotten, or omitted, to say something.
2 Keep this secret: This is not the right answer. A good way of asking someone to keep something secret would be "keep this to yourself" or "don't tell anyone", but "by the way" has nothing to do with secrets.
