are taking

No substitution required

were taking

will have taken

- The sentence talks about an ongoing action by using "these days."

- "Are been taking" is incorrect as it mixes present continuous and passive voice.

- Option 1: "are taking" - Uses present continuous tense correctly, indicating ongoing action.

- Option 2: "No substitution required" - Incorrect, the original segment is grammatically wrong.

- Option 3: "were taking" - Incorrect, as it implies past action, not matching "these days."

- Option 4: "will have taken" - Incorrect, as it implies a future action completed before another, which doesn't fit here.
