In order to show you how to make accent marks, we need to know 2 things: 1) do you have a PC of a Mac and 2) do you have Windows or not?
#4 It is to 2 of us so it must be plural = D (a mí y a Raúl)
#15 presento (verbal ending missing) B - I have known him for many years
#20 Why a gift in black and white? I'd choose C = elegant and practical
#24 A is feminine, as everything ending in -ión. The answer is D = atmosphere

I have a pc and windows
To install the Spanish Keyboard on Windows XP, click first on "Start" and then open the "Control Panel."
– Once there click on "Regional and Language Options" (If you are in an older version of windows, click on "Keyboard" in the "Control Panel").
– Now select the "Languages" tab at the top of the new window and then click on "Details." The large white box contains a list of the languages and keyboards you have installed.
– To add a Spanish keyboard, click on "ADD".
– There is a long list of Spanish spell-checkers available. Any one will do, but I suggest "Spanish (International Sort)" which will alphabetize lists the correct (modern) way. The program will automatically select the "Spanish Variation" keyboard.
– Click "OK" to exit the control panel.
Now (perhaps after you restart your computer) you will see a small square near your system tray (the lower right row of icons on the task bar at the bottom of your screen in Windows). Clicking on this little square (or pressing the Ctrl and Shift keys at the same time) will give you the option of toggling back and forth between any keyboards you have installed.
NOTA BENE: If you install a non-English keyboard the letters on your actual keyboard (the hardware) will not necessarily indicate what letter is actually typed.
IF YOU INSTALL THE SPANISH KEYBOARD YOU CAN SEE THE KEYBOARD LAYOUT HERE.
To type an accent mark on a Spanish Keyboard, hit the apostrophe followed by the vowel over which you want the mark. The "ñ" is the colon key; "Ñ" is a capital colon. Question marks ("¿" and "?") are the "+" and "_" symbols respectively. The upside down exclamation is the "=" key.
Good luck!
If that doesn't work, let me know because there are other ways, as well.

Great job on answering the questions! Now, let me explain how to get the correct answers for each question.
1. The question asks for the item you would like to order for dessert. To answer this, you need to understand the meaning of each option. In this case, "el mantel" means tablecloth, "el menú" means menu, "la servilleta" means napkin, and "la merienda" means snack. The correct option for ordering a dessert would be "B. el menú".
2. The question asks for the relation between the basement and the first floor. To answer this, you need to know the correct preposition to use. In this case, "debajo" means under, "detrás" means behind, "delante" means in front, and "lejos" means far. The correct option would be "A. debajo" because it means "under".
3. The question asks what Marta and Joaquín are bringing to the party. To answer this, you need to understand the usage of each verb conjugation. In this case, "traigo" means I bring, "traen" means they bring, "traes" means you bring, and "traemos" means we bring. The correct option would be "B. traen" because it means "they bring".
4. The question asks who serves the main course to you and Raúl. To answer this, you need to know the correct pronoun to use. In this case, "me" means me, "te" means you, "le" means him/her, and "nos" means us. The correct option would be "B. te" because it means "you".
5. The question asks what you would use to check the bus schedule. To answer this, you need to understand the meaning of each option.

The correct option would be "D. el transporte público" because it means "public transportation".
6. The question asks what you have to recycle in your community. To answer this, you need to understand the meaning of each option. In this case, "el cartón" means cardboard, "las latas" means cans, "las botellas de plástico" means plastic bottles, and "los periódicos" means newspapers. The correct option would be "A. el cartón" because it means "cardboard".
7. The question asks what your grandmother says about conserving energy. To answer this, you need to know the correct verb conjugation to use. In this case, "digo" means I say, "decimos" means we say, "dice" means she/he/it says, and "dicen" means they say. The correct option would be "C. dice" because it means "she/he/it says".
8. The question asks if you should return a book you no longer need. To answer this, you need to understand the correct pronoun and verb conjugation to use. In this case, "vas a devolverlo" means you are going to return it, "devuelve" means return (imperative), "lo devuelva" means she/he returns it (subjunctive), and "devuélvelo" means return it (affirmative imperative). The correct option would be "D. devuélvelo" because it means "return it".
9. The question asks if you know how many blocks away the post office is. To answer this, you need to understand the correct verb conjugation to use. In this case, "sé" means I know, "sabes" means you know, "sabemos" means we know, and "sabéis" means you all know. The correct option would be "A. sé" because it means "I know".
10. The question asks what you should do to protect the environment. To answer this, you need to understand the correct verb tense and form to use. In this case, "úsalo" means use it, "no usas" means you don't use, "no usan" means they don't use, and "usa" means use. The correct option would be "D. usa" because it means "use".
Continue with the same approach to get the explanations for the rest of the questions.
