1 trip: "Trip" is the best term here. A "trip" is a "journey" or a "holiday". Here's another example: "I'd like to take a trip to Marseille this summer".
2 flew: "Flew" is the right answer here. The verb to fly is conjugated as: I fly/I flew/I have flown. In this sentence, we need the preterit tense, due to the time marker "yesterday". Here's another example: "The bird stole my ring, flew through the air, and landed on a very high branch".
3 flown: "Flown" is the correct conjugation here. We say "I fly/I flew/I have flown". This is an example of the present perfect tense, which is needed when we want to say that we "have already done something". Another example: "-Have you ever flown on the back of a dragon? -No, I've never even seen a dragon!".

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.
