As usual, Jean has made a few English mistakes in his email. Help him by selecting the best answers for each sentence.
"What a trip to Boston I have taken 1! The city is impressive 2, but I didn't understand anything 3!"
1 taken: This is the best answer here. "To take a trip" is the correct expression; the action of "going on" a trip is most often associated with the verb "to take". The correct sentence should read: "What a trip to Boston I have taken", or even better "What a trip to Boston I took!"
1 done: This is incorrect. In English, we don't "do a trip"!
1 made: This is incorrect. Although the expression "to make a trip (to the store)" does exist, we don't ever use this expression in the past perfect tense. Jean's expression is extremely unnatural!
2 impressive: The correct choice here is "impressive". An "impressive (view)" is one that inspires admiration or respect, or "impresses"! The corrected sentence should read: "The city is very impressive".
2 impression: This is not the best choice. "An impression" describes a notion or feeling, for example: I get the impression that you're tired'. This term shouldn't be used to describe something that inspires admiration or respect.
2 impressing: This is not the best choice. "Impressing" is a form of the verb "to impress", meaning to inspire admiration, or a gerund ("Impressing people is what I do best"). The adjective "impressive" is necessary in this case, however.
3 anything: This is the correct answer. Because this sentence is negative ("I didn't"), we must use an affirmative term to complete it. Using another negative term such as "nothing" creates a double negative, which is generally grammatically incorrect in English.
3 nothing: This is not the best choice. Using a negative term such as "nothing" after "I didn't" creates a double negative construction, which is generally grammatically incorrect in English.
3 something: Although this sentence is grammatically correct, using "something" here is extremely unnatural, and indicates that Jean didn't not understand one particular aspect of his trip. The rest of the Jean's paragraph indicates that this is not the case.

Bruno "doesn't go around kidnapping monkeys."
Another way to express this is: Bruno
Another way to express this is: Bruno
Bruno "doesn't go around kidnapping monkeys."
Another way to express this is: Bruno doesn't make a habit of kidnapping monkeys.
Another way to express this is: Bruno doesn't make a habit of kidnapping monkeys.
doesn't make a habit of kidnapping monkeys.: This is the correct choice. The expression "I don't go around (stealing cars)" means "I don't make a habit of stealing cars" or "I don't steal cars on a regular basis". This expression can also be used in the affirmative to express that something is done regularly or habitually: I like to go around taking photos of the monuments in Paris. However, the expression is generally used in the negative. In the dialogue, Bruno uses this expression to distinguish his "legitimate" or "moral" actions from Dr. Badguy's "evil" actions.
doesn't make his living by kidnapping monkeys.: This is incorrect. The idiom "to make a living" or "to earn a living" refers to someone's job, or to the way someone makes money. For example: My father makes a living by shining shoes. This indicates that "my father's" job is to shine shoes'. We can also use the expression in more of a financial sense: my mother is an artist, but she makes her living as a part time school teacher. This means that although she is an artist, my mother makes money by teaching. This idiom does not share a similar meaning with Bruno's remark "I don't go around" kidnapping monkeys.
is not impressed by kidnapping monkeys.: "To be impressed by something" does not share a similar idea with Bruno's remark. Bruno is expressing that he and Dr. Badguy are very different, not that he isn't "influenced" or "affected" by Badguy's actions.
wouldn't boast about kidnapping monkeys.: This is not a good choice. To "boast" means to speak in an ostentatious or pretentious manner about something. Example: Philip is always boasting about how many women he's slept with. This expression doesn't reflect what Bruno tells Dr. Badguy.
