3.Guess the names of the sports by taking into account their defining elements.

To me these are all ok.


One more: is the use of comma correct in the following:
4. Depending on the context, fish and cake may be countable, too.
Yes ["too" here means "also"]

I read somewhere that there are times when too is not preceded by a comma.Can you, please, explain?

There is too much information for me to take on board.
He is too old to go to sea
They went to Portugal too.


5.Is "gurl" an informal term for "girl" in both British and American English?
Thank you so much,

It is a misspelling and a colloquial form.
