Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
The correct replacement is calls for. In this context, it means "requires" a high level of concentration.
Meanings of the phrases:
Calls for: requires or makes something necessary.
Calls upon: requests or urges someone to do something.
Calls off: cancels or abandons a plan or event.
Calls up: telephones someone or recalls something in memory.
So the improved sentence is: It is the sort of work that calls for a high level of concentration.
