(A) is a good reply because it shows the listener already knows about the new office and adds helpful information (they will work with the Marketing and Research teams).
(B) fits well because it confirms the news (“Yeah…”) and gives an extra detail (the branch will focus on tech services), which keeps the conversation going.
(C) also works because it reacts naturally (“Wow, that’s big news”) and then asks a logical follow-up question about whether the person plans to move or change jobs.
(D) is less suitable here, because it jumps straight to commuting arrangements without first showing understanding of the basic news.

The word "branch" can refer to several related ideas. Literally, it means a part of a tree that grows out from the trunk. Figuratively, it can describe something that splits off from a main part—like a branch of a company (a separate office or store in a different location), a branch of government (such as the executive or judicial branch), or even a branch of knowledge (like biology or history). In all cases, a "branch" suggests something that extends or divides from a central source.

The verb "expand" means to grow larger, spread out, or increase in size, number, or detail—for example, "The company plans to expand into new markets." The noun "expansion" refers to the process or result of expanding, such as "The expansion of the company created new job opportunities." While "expand" focuses on the action of growing or enlarging, "expansion" refers to the outcome or ongoing process of that action.
