The second sentence is correct. "Nonetheless " connects the two ideas.

"used to" an "little" are better in these sentences. They sound more natural in these sentences. "Would hope" conveys something slightly different to me, but I don't know how to explain it. Here is a link to show you how "would hope" is generally used--https://hinative.com/en-US/questions/1031492

The first sentence is the only one that would be used. It would mean that you are holding your phone. The phrase "on my hands" could be used in a few ways. You put gloves on your hands (meaning you are wearing them). You put lotion on your hands when they are dry. If you have time on your hands, it means that you have free time. I can't think of a time when the third sentence would ever be used. Good luck!

"Small groups of people can make the rest of us think what they please about a given subject." Yes, the sentence is correct but a bit awkward. The idea is that we can be influenced to agree with the opinions of others when more people are involved. For instance, when we see many people agreeing on facebook about a given subject, we can be influenced to agree with them.

Children can adjust easily to life abroad. They do not have any difficulty in adjusting to life abroad. Both sentences mean the same thing, so you really only need to use one of them. Great work!

1. What do you want for breakfast? Scrambled eggs or oatmeal? (Not sure what porridge is but thinking it is oatmeal you are referring to.) 2. I feel sorry for him because of all the troubles he has had lately. You could replace lately with recently. (Your sentence was grammatically correct but it was not exactly how we would say it in English) 3. no changes 4. great! no changes 5. Almost perfect except you need a comma--The government imposed huge taxes on small businesses, so many companies had to close down. 6. No changes but a different way to say it would be: Your conscious will guide you in such situations. GREAT sentences.

Thank you so much Krystal!!
