No correction. 'To be in someone's good books' is an idiomatic expression indicating that one is in another's favour.

Taxpayers are to be conscious of their privileges.

Answer: (c)

With 'privileges', 'need to' is correct usage.

Question :8

The rules of chess require that one made only one move at a time.
