Payments will only be made after you reach retirement age,_4 if_ you notify the company of your whereabouts.
It's the only answer that makes sense. Payment is contingent upon reaching retirement age, and not before. They also have to know where you are.
* Bali is a favorite stop for tourists __2. vacationing __ in the Far East.
The gerund form is correct, because the past tense (1) and the noun (3) don't work. If it were (4) vacations, the word tourist's would have to have an apostrophe.
*The new CEO asked that all inter-office communications be made in writing raTHer than in person, whenever __3. possible__.
Communications are not "whenever available". If you say "whenever present" it also dosen't make much sense. Communications are not "present".

Sentence 1: Answer Choice # 4.
It is a conditional clause & so 'IF'!
Sentence 2: Answer Choice # 2. VACATIONING ( in the meaning taking a vacation & so, 'vacationing' is the right word)
Sentence 3. Answer Choice # 3. POSSIBLE. This is the right choice as with the other two, the sentence doesn't make sense.

1. if; it is the only logical choice. The others don't make sense.
2. vacationing; the other choices aren't in the proper tense.
3. possible; again, it is the only logical choice. The other options don't fit in the sentence.

You have to try out the three possibilities and figure out which one sounds right. Use your knowledge about tense and vocabulary. You should be able to rule out some of the answers.
