The correct answer is The restaurant will only accept deliveries through the back entrance.The remaining sentences are incorrect because

In A raise was given to all employees accept the intern , the correct here is except. In The school was happy to except all donations to support their programs the correct verb is accept. In Please except this as a token of my appreciation, the correct is accept.



The sentence that most correctly uses the verbs correctly is C -  The restaurant will only accept deliveries through the back entrance.

Sentence A wrongly used the accept when it should have used 'except'. Sentence B wrongly used the verb except rather than the word 'accept'.
