stricken means something seriously affected. This word doesn't go with the context. So options a,b,c are ruled out. Out of d and e; Option E is my take.

ordered is a bossy verb so it requires a verb in subjunctive mood.
IMO: C

a.) one should not attempt to explore it on one's own
b.) one should not attempt the exploring of it on one's own
c.) you should not attempt to explore it on your own
d.) you should not attempt exploring it on your own
e.) you should not attempt exploring of it on your own
'you' is mentioned in later part of the sentence so 'you' shoule be used, A & B out
D,E Incorrect Idiom use 'attempt exploring'
IMO: C
Although the island is fairly secure, one should not attempt to explore it on one's own : the travel company will not be held responsible for injuries you incur outside the facilities provided for you.

b.) one should not attempt the exploring of it on one's own

In the latter part of the sentence 'you' is used. Hence for the sake of
symmetricity C is correct

My answer is C.
During her testimony, the witness referred to facts about the defendant that had been ruled inadmissible as evidence, so judge ordered that her remarks were stricken from the record.
a.) were stricken from the record
b.) are stricken from the record
c.) be stricken from the record
d) are not recorded
e) will not be recorded
Please post the explanation with the answer.
I used elimination of options. "were", "are" are incorrect usages. Either we can use "be stricken from the record" or "be not recorded". Both are acceptable. But since only one option is available in the options, C is the answer.
P.S. I am going by ear, not by rules 😁
