I'm forever confused with the usage of the following. Appreciate answers and/or clarifications:
1) Let ________ and ________ be the first to hear the good news, please?
(1) she...I (2) her...I
(3) she...me (4) her...me
2) The scissors which my mother uses to cut my hair _____ sharpened every year.
(1) is (2) are (3) was (4) were
3) Which spelling is British and which is American?
(1) realise / realize
(2) colors / colours
(3) organize / organise......
1. her and me (object pronouns with 'let')
2. are (scissors is a plural noun)
3. realize, color and organize are US (in many words, American English favors 'z' over 's' and 'or' over 'our')

I do agree with Francois. Answers are quite right.
I may add the singular form of scissors here which is "a pair of scissors"
Regards
Thanks Francois and Ahmed for the explanation...
