This is correct. "Swap" is a synonym of "switch" in this context. Both verbs describe the act of making an exchange. In this conversation, Bruno asks to change places or seats with Donna. It should be noted that "swap" is more common in British English, for example: -Would you like to swap places with the Queen? -Not really. Also note that the verb "to swap" is irregular: swap/swapped/swapped.
This is incorrect. "Switch" and "turn" are synonymous in expressions like "Can you switch/turn on the light?", where the meaning carries a sense of starting a process. In this conversation, Bruno is using "switch" to describe the act of making an exchange.
This is incorrect. "Keep" and "switch" are antonyms, meaning that they have the opposite meaning to each other. If Bruno wanted to keep seats, then he would be expressing a desire to stay where he was.
This is correct. "Trade" is a synonym of "switch" in this context. Both verbs describe the act of making an exchange. In this conversation, Bruno asks to change places or seats with Donna. Note that the verb "to trade" also has business and commerce implications (most forms of business are essentially a form of exchange). To express the idea of physical exchange, "trade" is more commonly used in American English, for example: -Do you want to trade places with the President of the USA? -Er, thanks but no.

1 exchange: "Exchange" is the correct choice here. To "exchange money" is to "swap", "switch", or "trade" it. In this context, we "exchange" one type of money for another. Example: "I exchanged $100 for £2. I don't think that was a very good deal". You can exchange money at a "bureau de change" (UK) or a "currency exchange" (US).

2 currencies: "Currencies" is the best term here. A "currency" is a type of money, such as the Dollar, the Yen, the Euro, etc. In the dialogue, two currencies are discussed: the Australian Dollar and the American Dollar. Interestingly, the word "Dollar" is derived from the Low German term "daler".
