Answer 1

1. I've just been transferred to this (head office). Could you tell me where my cubicle is, please?

2. If there is any hope of meeting this deadline, we'll have to work (overtime) next week.

Answer 2

1. I've just been transferred to this **department**. Could you tell me where my cubicle is, please? In this sentence, "department" is the most appropriate choice because it indicates the specific area or section where the person has been transferred to within an organization. 2. If there is any hope of meeting this deadline, we'll have to work **overtime** next week. In this sentence, "overtime" is the correct choice because it suggests working additional hours beyond the regular work schedule to meet the deadline. Working "part-time" or "flexitime" next week would not be effective in this context for meeting a deadline.
