I even have issues with some of the correct answers.

Yes, 02 confuses many people:
Many people say "I could care less" when they mean "I could NOT care less." (That is, it is IMPOSSIBLE for me to care less than I already do.)
"I could care less" = It is POSSIBLE for me to care less than I currently care. So that means you DO care a LITTLE bit right now. That is not what you want the other person to think.

09 is very interesting. Actually, they are both correct. It depends on what you mean.
Usually, the "good" English is "He did well." For example, he attended college and did very well in his studies. "Well" is an adverb that tells HOW he did.
But sometimes "He did good" means that he did good deeds. For example, Tom and Mona went to country X and did good (deeds). They helped people in every way.

Whew...I guess my English isn't *THAT* bad.

This is very good! :) You are right, many Americans can still confuse these very commonly-used phrases!
