Hello Lenka.

13) have sewn is correct. It's the present perfect: HAVE + past participle.

2) Yes, it's true. "true" is an adjective; Yes, it's the truth. "truth" is a noun. It takes an article/determiner, "the/a".

6) *"anyone can't do it" is incorrect. Try, "no one can do it." Negate the subject, not the verb:

Affirmative: anyone can / any one person can
Negative: no one can / no one person can

8) "It is a very nicely flowered garden."

Sounds lovely to me. It's English.


EX: "He did it easily."

"easily" functions as an adverb. It tells us how:

EX: How did he do it?
EX: Easily is how he did it.


It’s a very nice story.

"very" modifies "nice", an adjective, so it functions as an adverb in that sentence.
