    Solution

    1.       (e) 1- MOVING means to go in a specified direction, and MOTIVATING means driving something or someone. The sentence talks about how higher education system has its own way of driving productivity, so B will be used. 2- CONDEMN means to criticise and COMPEL means to force. The sentence talks about how the higher education system does not need to force professors to produce scholarship since they do so on their own. B will be used. 3- IMPLIES means to indicate indirectly, and RELIES means depends. The sentence talks about how the standard structure for motivating employees depends on manipulating two incentives. B will be used here. Thus, (e) is the right answer.
