Thanks for your help but to be frank I could not find a direct relation between those options because in this sentence I need a phs verb meaning handle or tackle the meaning of that is probably kept in take on.Am I right?

#30 doesn't seem to be correct. Try #113.

The other numbers seem to be okay. Bad luck.
