If Bruno is unable to , he should call the dentist's office.
If Bruno is unable to attend the appointment, he should call the dentist's office.
attend the appointment: This is correct. In the context of this notecard, the phrase "to make an appointment" means to attend or show up for the appointment. If Bruno cannot attend the appointment, he should call the dentist's office.
schedule the appointment: This is incorrect. Although in another context the phrase "to make an appointment" can mean to "schedule or plan an appointment", in this case the expression has a completely different meaning.
create the appointment: This is incorrect. Although "to make" is often synonymous with the verb "to create", it is not the case here.
cancel the appointment: This is incorrect. Bruno is being asked to cancel or reschedule the appointment if he cannot attend it.

This is a true statement. Philip asks Kevin if he wants to "grab a drink", and Kevin declines, saying "No, I'm afraid I can't make it. I've got a relative coming in from Ireland." When Kevin says "I can't make it" he is expressing that he can't go to the bar because he has a family member arriving from Ireland.
This statement is not true. On the contrary, Kevin says that his relative is "coming in from Ireland", which means that they are arriving from Ireland, or visiting America.
Kevin is not expecting a visit from his parents (his mother and father), but rather from one of his cousins. In English, the term "parent" refers only to one's mother or father, and not to a general relative.
This is true. Kevin tells Philip that one of his relatives is "coming in from Ireland". The phrasal verb "to come in" from somewhere indicates that someone is arriving (from somewhere). Kevin says that a relative is coming in, and later specifies that it is his cousin.
