Blank (a) talks about moral sense of duty: based on this, eliminate option a. Altruism is more along the line of caring of others even if it hurts you. It isn't the right word to describe moral duty.
Blank (b) uses the word* foresee.*** **I would have eliminated all remaining options based on this. Vigilance means to keep an eye on someone. Not relevant to foreseeing. Adaptability, while not wrong, I would say is the inferior word. Adaptability is more along the lines of changing when things are happening or have happened. However foresight is changing before something has happened which is relevant to the context. Thus foresight is better.
For blank (c), I'll be honest, I have no idea why gravitas is the correct word. Gravitas is seriousness of a situation. According to the context, I would have gone for persuasion.
For blank (d), it talks about taking responsibility for some action. This is nothing but the definition of accountability. Responsibility isn't wrong per se however it can also have another meaning which is having a responsibility of some position or some task or whatever. Thus, accountability is the better word.
Side note from an ex CL student, please double check the questions and solutions. There are A LOT of mistakes in their solutions. The given explanations also sometimes don't make any sense at times. So don't blindly accept the answer they've written.

oh okay thankyou so much! yeah I got confused due to gravitas too and hence all of the options seemed to be partially right.
yeah the answers are wrong sometimes, and the explanations are tricky as well.
