1 That's a funny joke: "That's a good one" is a common expression which means "that was a funny joke" or "that was a good story". here the cab driver is responding to Jean's comment that he "is not a Christian", which actually isn't a joke. This expression is used both in American and British English.
1 That's a long way from here: The expression "That's a good one" is unrelated to the idea of distance.
1 That's very strange: The cab driver's expression is a comment on the humor of Jean's statement, not on its strangeness or abnormality.
2 Get inside the car: This is the correct choice. "Hop in" is an idiom inviting someone "get in" a vehicle (usually a car). This expression is used in both American and British English.
2 Find another taxi: This is not what "hop in" expresses.
2 The door is open: This is not what "hop in" expresses.
3 I finish my shift at approximately 10 o'clock: The idiom "to get off work" means to finish working (for the day). A "shift" has many meanings, but in this context refers to the period of time that the cab driver has worked during the day. For example: The night shift at the metro starts at 11:00 pm. The expression "to get off work" is used in both British and American English.
3 My shift started at approximately 10 o'clock: This is not what "to get off work" expresses. The cab driver is not indicating when she started working, but rather when she will finish.
3 My busiest period begins at approximately 10 o'clock: This is not what "to get off work" expresses. To talk about when a busy period begins, the cab driver might say, for example, "I get very busy from 10 o'clock" or "things really pick up around 10".
4 You're kind of cute: The cab driver is expressing that she finds Jean "attractive" or "cute". She uses the British idiom "you're a bit of alright" which is familiar.
4 You seem rather ordinary: This is not what the cab driver is expressing when she says that Jean "is a bit of alright".
