Here's an analysis of each sentence, identifying the incorrect part and providing the correction:1. **How far does it take to go to your office?** * **Incorrect:** B ("does it take") * **Correct:** How long does it take to go to your office? (or: How far is it to your office?) "How far" asks about distance, while "take" implies time.2. **There are too much mistakes in this essay.** * **Incorrect:** B ("much") * **Correct:** There are too many mistakes in this essay. "Many" is used with countable nouns (mistakes).3. **She didn't remember what they said and neither I didn't.** * **Incorrect:** D ("neither I didn't") * **Correct:** She didn't remember what they said and neither did I. The correct structure for a negative neither/nor clause is to use a simple verb form.4. **He hoped winning the golden medal in that competition.** * **Incorrect:** B ("hoped winning") * **Correct:** He hoped to win the golden medal in that competition. The infinitive "to win" is needed after "hoped."5. **Would you mind if I sit here?** * **Incorrect:** C ("sit") * **Correct:** Would you mind if I sat here? The subjunctive mood requires the past tense "sat" in this conditional sentence.6. **Yesterday I came to an old friend on the way home.** * **Incorrect:** B ("came to") * **Correct:** Yesterday I met an old friend on the way home. or Yesterday I ran into an old friend on the way home. "Came to" implies arrival at a location, not encountering a person.7. **It's convenience to use the Internet to search for update information.** * **Incorrect:** A ("convenience") * **Correct:** It's convenient to use the Internet to search for updated information. "Convenience" is a noun; "convenient" is the adjective needed here. Also, "update" should be "updated."8. **They live in poverty in a rurality place to the North of Vietnam.** * **Incorrect:** C ("rurality place") * **Correct:** They live in poverty in a rural area/place in the North of Vietnam. "Rurality" is a noun referring to the state of being rural; "rural area" or "rural place" is the correct phrasing. Also, "to the North" is better written as "in the North."9. **Most of the Earth's surface covers by water.** * **Incorrect:** C ("covers by") * **Correct:** Most of the Earth's surface is covered by water. The passive voice is needed here; the surface is *covered*, not doing the covering.
