This statement is true. Brent asks Ray to call the studio once he is "closer to a major city", and Ray agrees to do this when he says "sounds good". "Close" and "near" are synonymous in this context. Both terms describe proximity to a location.
This statement is false. Brent and Moira are going to speak with someone who traveled around the world on a pogo stick. The expression "to circle the globe" describes the act of traveling all over the world. A "globe" is a sphere (a three dimensional circle), and the term is often used to describe the planet earth. "To build (an object)" is to construct, assemble or create it.
This statement is true. Ray tells Brent and Moira that he, Rachid and Bonnie are "not far" from Lisbon, meaning that they are "close" (in proximity) to Lisbon.
This statement is true. Ray reports that Rachid "took a wrong turn over Barcelona". The expression "to take (or make) a wrong turn" describes the act of turning at the wrong place.
This statement is false. Ray reports that he and his team are flying over the coast of Portugal. The "coast" describes the strip of land which borders the sea or ocean. The helicopter is flying over land, not over the middle of the ocean.

When Hannah says that Philip will "step over the line", she means that he'll .
When Hannah says that Philip will "step over the line", she means that he'll go too far.
go too far: This is the best choice here. To "step over the line" is to go too far with something, to behave in a way that becomes inappropriate and potentially damaging. For example, "It was quite funny at first, but you really stepped over the line when you started swearing at the coffee machine".
move too fast: This is an incorrect answer. To "move too fast" is to do too much too quickly. For example, you might say of a person who took you to meet her parents on the first date that she was "moving too fast".
take a wrong turn: This is an incorrect answer. To "take a wrong turn" means to make a poor choice. For instance, "I wouldn't recommend buying stock in the U.S. airline industry; I think you're taking a wrong turn there". Literally "to take a wrong turn" is to drive on to an incorrect road, which will not take you where you want to go.
