يا مسهل
بسم الله نبدأ
1- The company has so little money that it can't hardly operate any more.
يمكن تصحيحها على شكلين .
الأول :
1- The company has so little money that it can't operate any more.
أو :
1- The company has so little money that it hardly operate any more.
السبب : hardly ظرف يعنى بالكاد ، أو بصعوبة و هو يفيد معنى النفى و لا يمكن أن يستخدم خلف نفى .


2- Should Albert not interfere in his sister's marital problems last year, there would have been peace between them.

يمكن تصحيحها على النحو التالى :
2- Had Albert not interfered in his sister's marital problems last year, there would have been peace between them.

الجملة أساسا خاطئة لأنها تستلزم تصحيح should و الفعل interfere
السبب :
بسبب الظرف الزمنى last year فإن الجملة تعبر ببساطة عن افتراض تخيليى لحدث ماضى نستخدم فيه حالة If
الشرطية الثالثة ( و فى الجملة استبدالنا if ب had


3- At the rate the clerks were processing the applications, John figured that it will take four ours for his to be reviewed.


الجملة معناها غير مستساغ خاصة بوجود reviewed فى النهاية
بمعاودة البحث فى معنى الكلمة : هنا http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/review_2
و هنا http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/review_1

و كذلك معنى كلمة process هنا : http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/process_2

لم أفهم معنى للجملة و كلن يمكن القول أن الحل يمكن أن يكون كالتالى :
3- At the rate the clerks were processing the applications, John figured that it will take him four hours to be reviewed.

و للمرة الثانية لا يمكن تصحيح شيئان فى الجملة .

4- Fortunately , we got home before it started to rain.
السبب
يستخدم الظرف أحيانا فى أول الجملة و لكن يفصل ب comma عن باقى الجملة .

5- To spray is to make liquid come out of a container in a stream of very small drops.
المعنى غير مقرر عليك فى المنهج

A balcony is a small area outside an upstairs window where people can sit or stand
على الرغم من أن بها تصحيح للآداة و الجملة إلا أنها جملة جيدة

بالتوفيق إن شاء الله .

Thank you very much you are a helpful man
