Как рассуждать

A. Здесь важно опираться на смысл предложения и устойчивые сочетания:

«Don’t believe everything Bill says» → он insincere — неискренний;

look on the bright side — «смотреть на светлую сторону»;

give somebody a big hug — крепко обнять;

«never listens to anyone» → stubborn — упрямая;

«will be here on time» → reliable — надёжный;

tap one’s foot — нервно постукивать ногой;

shrug one’s shoulders — пожимать плечами;

a slim build — стройное телосложение.

B. Тут проверяются степени сравнения прилагательных:

9 и 11 — превосходная степень: the most sociable / the most patient, потому что это длинные прилагательные;

10 — сравнительная степень после a bit: more sensitive;

12 — конструкция the + сравнительная степень, the + сравнительная степень: the older …, the wiser …;

13 — исключение: little — less — the least, поэтому the least he could do — «самое меньшее, что он мог бы сделать».
