1 is difficult: This is correct. In this context, "tough" shares a similar meaning with "difficult". When Bruno writes that the weekend is "tough" he means that it is difficult, or that he has probably made other plans. Another example: Getting his work done on time will be tough.
1 is possible: This is incorrect. Bruno doesn't mean that the weekend will be possible. "Tough" shares a similar meaning with difficult. Bruno means that the weekend won't be easy for him.
1 has a hard exterior and a soft centre: This is incorrect. Bruno's weekend is not a chocolate with a hard exterior and a soft centre. What chocolates do you like? Why don't you tell us? My favourite is dark chocolate with a tough (or hard) exterior, and a caramel interior.
1 is too early: This is incorrect. Bruno doesn't mean that the weekend will be too early. "Tough" shares a similar meaning with difficult. Bruno means that the weekend won't be easy for him.
2 might pay a brief visit: This is the correct answer. To "pop by" (or "to pop in") is to visit briefly, or pay a quick visit. Example: We popped by the pub on our way to the cemetery. Donna writes that she and her friend may come to the picnic for a short amount of time.
2 won't be able to attend: This is incorrect. Donna does not mean that she won't be able to attend the picnic. The term to "pop by" indicates that she may come for a short period of time, not that she won't be able to come.
2 can come: This is not the best answer. Although Donna indicates the possibility of her arrival ("we MAY pop by"), this does not mean that she can or is able to come. Also, the term "to come" is not synonymous with "to pop by", which means to visit briefly.
2 are attending a music concert: This is not correct. The term "to pop by" is unrelated to pop concerts, unless one only wants to see a pop concert for a brief amount of time, in which case one could say "I'd like pop by your pop concert around 10pm."
3 make sure Brian is informed: This is correct. The expression "keep me posted" is a request to be given new information as it arrives. To "make sure that someone is informed" (or "to keep someone informed") is to tell them of new developments or events. This shares a very similar meaning with the expression "keep me posted".
3 send Brian a letter: This is incorrect. The expression "keep me posted" is unrelated to the notion of "posting" or "sending" a letter.
3 reply quickly: This is incorrect. The expression "keep me posted" is unrelated to the notion of "replying quickly".
3 make an announcement: This is incorrect. To "make an announcement" is to make a declaration and is not synonymous with "to keep someone posted". Bob does not want to make an announcement.

1 cannot attend: This is incorrect. Donna does not mean that she won't be able to attend the picnic. The term to "pop by" indicates that she may come for a short period of time, not that she won't be able to come.
1 can come alone: This is not the best answer. Although Donna indicates the possibility of her arrival ("I can pop by"), this does not mean that she can come alone.
1 is looking forward to the event: This is not correct. "To look forward to (doing something)" is to be excited or happy about doing something in the future. This is unrelated to the expression "to pop by".
2 make sure Brian is informed: This is correct. The expression "keep me posted" is a request to be given new information as it arrives. To "make sure that someone is informed" (or "to keep someone informed") is to tell them of new developments or events. This shares a very similar meaning with the expression "keep me posted".
