I do not like the choices in 5. The most densely populated areas are now the northern large cities Shanghai and Beijing, which are not tropical or wet. There are some tropical wet cities in the Pearl River region (e.g. Hong Kong and Ghuongzhou) and Guilin
3. Is OK.
2. Is New Zealand, as a world map will tell you.

For the population map, the darkest red shows the most densely populated areas. The lighest (yellow) shows the least populated areas.

Compare this map with a map of Asia to orient yourself on this map. This map should also help you.
