E, D, B and E are the correct answers.

Explanation:

In the first question, letter A is incorrect because it is the same as in the original sentence; B is also correct since the books were donated to and object and not for something. C is also incorrect because the article the doesn't affect the meaning of the sentence; D is incorrect because it refers to the action of donating books. So, no error in this sentence.

In the second question, the correct answer is D because they is a plural object but is in reference to the act of the donation, so it must be it would.

In number three, the sentence uses a parallel structure or parallelism, which refers to the use of the same patter of words. In the sentence, the first two words are gerunds (verbs+ing that describe/name an action) and then an infinitive. A way to improve the sentence would be Exercising, studying, and socializing.

In number 4, the subject is an infinitive (to do) and since this type of words can serve as a subject to, no improvement or correction is required.
