When I first joined Spanish Dict I was keen to help [and still am] However, it is a community which means give as well as take. How does that work? You tell people your language level - some amazing people have to tackle a new alphabet when they learn Spanish or English others are learning English and Spanish but have reached a higher level in one of those languages so prefer more difficult explanations in their better language. An error by someone fluent in English can just be a typing mistake or laziness - a mistake by someone new to the language is a lack of knowledge or forgetfulness. We all need corrections but also want encouragement.

Your questions reads as if it was dictated by your teacher or copied from a text book/online learning site. You haven't explained why you may find it difficult so we may suspect it is because you do not want to make the effort.

Exercises are to test if you understand something and to help you learn Language is about communicating.

No doubt you will thank jemamu for making time to give you the answers [which is probably quicker than correcting something] However, we all enjoy encouraging people and if you had put your answer and said can you correct me? it would feel like a community.

As you may know, some adjectives change their meaning depending where they are placed [can cause a problem] So with the time saved on your homework check out this link to make sure you understand the correct answers:
