I think that there is no best answer.That is such every answers are true.Is it right?I couldn't find it.
Since you cannot underline a word, find another way to let us know WHICH WORD is it. You could use capital letters or (put it in parentheses)...
The problem is that we really want to help you but have to understand totally what it is that you are to do.
1. Give the directions of what you are to do
2. type it so we see what YOU see.
3. Tell us what you believe the answer is
Take for example #4. If I totally ignore the (A), (B), (C) (D) and (E)and just read the sentence, the only correction I can find is in punctuation of United States.

I have done MANY of these assignments for you. Now it's your turn.
If you find you cannot do these, then you must speak to your instructor about why you are in an English class that is too advanced for what you understand.
If you can do these, then please post what YOU THINK the answers are and why. Then we will be able to help you better.
Should parents/guardians raise their teenage girls in the same way that they raise their teenage boys? Why or why not? What rules should be the same for girls and boys? What should be different? Are behavioral expectations the same for adult men and women? Explain.
To identify the underlined word or phrase that should be corrected, we need to look at each option closely:
1. The cheerful (A), lively sound of (B) dance music expired (C) almost everyone (D). No error. (E)
In this sentence, the verb "expired" does not fit in the context, as it means "to come to an end" or "to die". A more suitable word would be "inspired" or "captivated".
2. After such (A) a magnificent (B) meal, we were (C) all quick to (D) applaud Mary for her delicious cooking?
In this sentence, the word "quick" should be replaced with "quickly" to match with the verb "to applaud" and indicate the adverbial form.
3. We are specially (A) going to have (B) face the reality that the (C) resources of (D) Earth are (E) limited.
In this sentence, "specially" should be replaced with "especially" to indicate the exceptionality or particularity of the action.
4. There are (A) also many words (B) or concepts associated (C) with (D) the words United States. (E)
In this sentence, "the words United States" should be corrected to "the phrase 'United States'" to indicate that it refers to a specific group of words.
Based on the analysis above, option 1, "expired," should be corrected.
