1. Discuss practical applications of auditory phonetics (at least 3
examples).

3. Explain why the shape of lips cannot be used in describing vowels.

Those are pretty big questions. Are you completely clueless about each of them? Do you not have any phonetics books, or a library with phonetics books? Some of those questions would have whole chapters dedicated to them.

I could help with some, but it would be better to know if you are completely clueless or just need some support. I can't answer them all - the first would be person opinion, and the third I don't agree with...
