This is incorrect. Brian writes that he has "provided a link to an application that will help me select the best day for the picnic", this means that he hasn't decided yet on the exact day (although he has suggested a weekend) and wants his colleagues to tell him what day they are available.
This is correct. Brian writes "The venue will be Golden Gate Park" meaning that a location has already been chosen. "Venue" shares a similar meaning with "location" in this context and describes the scene of any event or action, for example: The venue of today's meeting is the women's toilets.
This is incorrect. Brian writes that the weather forecast states that it is "going to be boiling all weekend". "Boiling" weather is very hot weather, enough to burn English people. "Mild" weather is moderate weather, neither hot nor cold, like the English prefer. "To boil (water)" is to heat it to 100 degrees Celsius.

1 Boiled: This is correct. "To boil" is to heat water until it starts to bubble and change from a liquid to a gas. Lots of foods, such as rice, vegetables and potatoes(!) are cooked by boiling. Example: These boiled potatoes are still hard - I think you should have BOILED them for longer!

1 Roasted: Roasted potatoes (more commonly known as "roast potatoes") are cooked in the oven.
1 Mashed: Ok, mashed potatoes are cooked in water, but this doesn't turn them in to mash! They need to be beaten, just like you for getting the wrong answer!
2 Roasted: This is correct. "To roast" is to cook in the oven. Example: A turkey takes 4 hours to ROAST in the oven. Roasted potatoes are officially the most delicious food in the universe. Note: sometimes we just say "roast" potatoes (but they are still just as tasty!).

1 steamed: This is correct. To "steam (vegetables)" is to cook them using the vapor or "steam" from boiling water. "Steaming" food is considered a healthy method of cooking since it does not use oil and retains most of the nutrients of the dish. In the conversation, the stewardess says "It's fresh red snapper (a type of fish) served with steamed vegetables". Steam is simply vaporized water, and is used in "steam engines" and "steam locomotives" (a type of older train).
2 having: This is correct. In English, the verb "to have" is often used when ordering food and drink: "I'll have a glass of Bordeaux and three and a half escargots, please". In the conversation, Bruno and Donna use this verb several times in this way.
3 beverages: A "beverage" is simply another word for a drink. It can be alcoholic, non-alcoholic, juice, water, etc. In this dialogue, the stewardess offers Donna and Bruno a wide assortment of "beverages". People in the service industry (waiters, flight attendants, bartenders, etc) are more likely to use this term than others.
