This is incorrect. The article states that "British visitors to the US have grown used to the strange sensation of seeing bargains all around." This means that the British find American goods inexpensive. A "bargain" is a "good deal" or "very good value" item. Example: I found a bargain the other day, an original copy of the Beaties Fabbey Rd album for $10.
This is correct. We read in the article that "the US property market has suddenly become great value for Britons" and that "the collapse of the dollar is key". One of the main points of the article is to suggest that the pound is currently very strong against the dollar, meaning that the US housing market is attractive to British property buyers.
This is incorrect. The article mentions the "sheer speed of the collapse of the dollar" and goes on to state that the "pound has risen 34 per cent against the dollar compared with five years ago, including 10 per cent in the past 12 months". This is a very fast rise!
This is incorrect. The article states "British buyers come in all shapes and sizes", meaning that there are many different types of British buyers. There is no mention that only rich Britons can afford to buy property in the US.
This is correct. In the article we read that Britons "cannot cope with the sky-high house prices at home", meaning that British people are finding that house prices are too high in the UK. The verb "to cope" describes being able to tolerate or support a situation. Example: Bruno couldn't cope with the pain in his tooth, so he went to the dentist. A "sky-high (price)" is a price which is very high.
