Solution:

• 1. There are a number of reasons why I say that. (The word 'reasons' fits grammatically and contextually to explain 'why').
• 2. In my view, you need to stay very calm. (The phrase 'in my view' means 'in my opinion').
• 3. Not simple that, but you have to deal with people who are very upset. (The word 'simple' implies the situation is not straightforward or easy).
• 4. The appeal of being on the phone all day doesn't finally to me. (The word 'appeal' refers to attractiveness or interest, and 'finally' is used here to express a concluding thought about the lack of appeal).
• 5. Only, I really wouldn't be the right person for the job for the idea reason that I can't stand the sight of blood! (The word 'only' can start a sentence to emphasize a point, and 'idea' is used here in a slightly unusual but plausible way to mean 'specific' or 'particular' reason, often seen in informal contexts or as a placeholder for a more specific adjective).
