Answer 1

I know Jim very well because we went to university together. (глагол не используется в аспекте continuous; всегда в progressive)correct (хотя лучше вынести "often" в самый конец, но не думаю, что это критично)My grandfather is a scientist and he likes to invent things. (то же, что и в первом пункте)Michael is a chef, but never does he cook at home for his family! (неверная синтаксическая форма инверсии)Teenagers are becoming more and more independent these days. (маркер аспекта continuous - "these days")The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. (general truth)Why is your little sister crying? Is she thirsty? (нелогично: little sister не может плакать всегда из-за того, что она испытывает жажду, поскольку, если не утолять жажду, можно умереть, то есть "всегда" прекратится; т.о., она плачет в данный момент)
