Edited for the feminine endings I missed. I'll comment on the ones I think are correct (and delete the ones I am not sure of) but I'm not giving you the answers. I am also not a native speaker so you might want to check my answers too. Fair?

  1.    Ana no es baja; es muy Alta - 
    

    correct

    1. Una persona de Chicago, Illinois, es Estados Unidos 
      

      Incorrect - see how there is a de in front of Chicago? I believe the same would apply to the country.

    2. The opposite of antipático is simpatico 
      

      need the accent on the a "á" in the fill in word

    3. Carlos es pelirrojo y Anita es Alto también. 
      

      Incorrect - how are tall and redhead related? And the gender for the fill in word is wrong.

    4. ¿Qué significa rubio? Blonde 
      

      correct

    5. Rosa es conservadora y Ricardo es Conservador también. 
      

      correct

II. Answer the following questions with complete sentences in Spanish.

  1. In English, explain why you cannot use the word Americano to describe someone from the United States. Because Americano can be used for every one who lives on the Americas continent. correct though you would refer to both continents

  2. Describe a tall, intelligent, red-haired boy. ese chico es inteligente y de alto y pelirrojo 
    

    The words are right but I don't know about that de

  3. How do you say, "Juanita is not tall"? Juanita no es alto 
    

    wrong gender ending

  4. ¿Qué nacionalidad es un chico de Francia? What nationality is a guy from france “FRANCE” 
    

    well the answer is French, not France in english

  5. How would you describe a girl who is the opposite of hardworking? Perezoso 
    

    wrong gender

  6. Say in Spanish: "The man is not Mexican; he is Canadian." el hombre no es mexicano, él es canadiense. 
    

    correct

  7. ¿Eres alto o bajo? Estás alto o bajo que estoy más alto que mi mamá y casi de mi papá. 
    

    The beginning confuses me. If you start the sentance with Estoy, you are right.

  8.  ¿Eres un amigo / una amiga leal?
    

Are you a friend / a loyal friend? Where is your answer?
