It should be "Taken up."
Hope it helps...^_^

Simplebeing:
Again a very suitable answer
why up? wouldn't take to be appropriate. take to means accept a habit. why up and not to?
See Taken up means something to adopt or take it . Here the secretary has adopted or copied his style so taken up will be used
Whereas taken to means to get into one's hand which is irrelevant to the question
I hope it's clear now
taken up is most suitable here
take to has different applications
ok got it. thanks
in Eng it is good to see people like Akshi contributing here ..in Maths and science no problem but in Eng giving correct ans is a problem ...especially in grammar.

Hello!
The answer is "up". Because whenever you are talking of a characteristic of a person followed by a past participle, it doesn't work much with 'to'. Also, when someone is taking up your ways of choosing their habit, and according to the sentence, up suits the best !
Hope this helps. If it does then pls mark as brainliest !
