The two sentences "Have you got to go?" and "Do you have to go?" have the same meaning. Both sentences are asking if the person needs to leave or if they are obligated to go somewhere. The phrase "have got to" is often used as a synonym for "have to" in informal English. Therefore, both sentences are asking about the necessity or obligation to leave.

The given answer is correct because the original sentence is grammatically correct. The subject "Neither Nick nor I" is a compound subject, and the verb "know" agrees with this plural subject. Therefore, there is no need to change the verb form to "knows" or to change "or" to "nor" in the sentence.

The given sentence "What kind of person are you?" is grammatically correct. It is a question asking about the type or category of person someone is. The alternatives provided ("What kind of a person..." and "What kind of the person...") are incorrect because they use incorrect articles. The correct article to use in this context is "of" without any additional articles.

The correct answer is 2) Someone was coming toward us. In American English, the word "toward" is commonly used, while in British English, "towards" is more commonly used. Therefore, sentence 2 is the American variant as it uses "toward" instead of "towards".

The two sentences have the same meaning. Both sentences express the idea of not inviting someone. The first sentence uses the contraction "don't" to indicate the negative form of "let us," while the second sentence uses the phrase "let's not." Despite the difference in wording, both sentences convey the same message. The statement "The first sentence is wrong" is incorrect because both sentences are grammatically correct and have the same meaning.

The correct answer is 2) The audience was enjoying the show. This is the American variant because in American English, collective nouns like "audience" are usually treated as singular, while in British English, they can be treated as either singular or plural.

Sentence 2, "Is this Becky?" is an American variant because in American English, it is common to use "this" when referring to a person or object that is close to the speaker. In this case, the speaker is likely referring to Becky who is either physically present or being pointed to. Sentence 1, "Is that Becky?" is more commonly used in British English, where "that" is used to refer to a person or object that is further away from the speaker.

The difference between "ax" and "axe" is that "ax" is an American variant of "axe". This means that "ax" is the American spelling of the word, while "axe" is the British spelling. Both words refer to the same tool, a chopping tool with a bladed head and a handle, but the spelling differs based on the region in which it is used.

The two sentences "How you've grown!" and "Haven't you grown!" have the same meaning. Both sentences express surprise or admiration at someone's growth or development. The first sentence is a statement while the second sentence is a question with a negative tag. However, both sentences convey the same message and can be used interchangeably to express the same sentiment.

The correct answer is "Yes, they mean the same." Both sentences convey the same meaning, which is that the evening appears to be nice. The only difference is the inclusion of the word "like" in the second sentence, which is optional and does not change the overall meaning.

The correct answer is "They are asking $500..." because the original sentence is grammatically correct and does not require any correction. It accurately conveys that someone is requesting a monthly rent of $500.

Sentence 1) "They can't be home" implies that it is not possible for them to be at home, while sentence 2) "They must not be home" suggests that it is necessary for them not to be at home. However, despite the difference in meaning, sentence 2) is more commonly used in American English, but it can convey the same meaning as sentence 1) in British English.

1) In my opinion, her boyfriend is an idiot. (not: According to me)
2)He arrives IN New York City. (note: arrive IN big cities, but arrive AT little towns, airports, and other not that big places)
3) You look younger IN this photo. (note: in a photo, in a picture)

Sentence 3) "15 heads of cattle" is incorrect because the word "heads" should be singular, not plural. It should be "15 head of cattle" instead.
