    In many cases, they are interchangeable. 完成 has a sense of achievement and completion. 結束 means the process of something is finished/complete/over. 了 indicates past tense. 完 is a complement like 好, 到 -- -- complements go after verbs. EX:　吃完了(finished eating it), 做好了(it's done, and done well), 看到了(saw it, achieve the seeing of something)

    If you want to stress the members of your family: 我的家人 家人 - jiā rén If you want 'my family' in general yours is fine: 我的家庭 NOTE: 我的家 this refers more to "my home" :)

    A. 今天上午他很快地吃完了饭 // B. 今天上午他饭吃得很快 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The main difference between these two constructions is that the adverbs in 地 construction describe the MANNER, MOOD or METHOD in which the actions are carried out; but the adverbs in the 得 construction are the DEGREE or RESULT of the actions and sometimes they can refer to the objects of sentences, e.g., 他吃饭吃得很多 the adverb 很多 refers to 饭. The emphasis in the (地) sentence "A" is very much on how he ate the meal. In other words, the stress is on his MANNER of eating the meal(action), but the result of that might not be necessarily very fast. The "B", (得) sentence implies that he only took very little time to finish the meal. So, in your sentences: 他复习汉语复习得认真。 The degree in which he reviewed was sincere/serious/studious. As a WHOLE, his reviewing may have been sincere. But maybe he took 5 years to do it and during that 5 years, he didn't 认真地复习汉语. The result of reviewing is sincere and hardworking-like. ------------------------------------------ 他认真地复习。 There is no result here, just saying his manner, method, or mood of studying is serious/sincere.

    you can replace "without a word" with "quietly" -- don't get mixed up with technical terms, think of it as an adverb phrase.. it's just describing how he went inside so... Tom frowned, moved his chair backwards, and quietly went inside somewhere EX: His mother fed him some icecream, whereupon he smiled, raised his hands, and without wasting a moment hugged his mother. I personally would use a comma after "without a word" to control the reader's pace. But, that's just my flavor ;-) Hope that helps! You can comment here if you have more questions about this and I'll gladly elaborate more.

    Ok, I answered below to help you. After realizing the complexity of that. There is no simple response, so I found what I consider to be the best resources to start familiarizing yourself with those combinations and posted it. Good luck :-)

    tl;dr -- best link http://comet.cls.yale.edu/mandarin/content/directional/grammar/direction-1b.htm NOTE: Depending on the VERB, the meaning can completely change, the rule can be broken, or it can seem pretty abstract. Exposure, reading more, hearing more is really the only way to learn it -- or acquire it. In a nutshell, the basic idea is that when you add those combinations to verbs, 來 will usually indicate you're already in a location/position speaking to a person and want them to perform the VERB in that same location. 去 will usually indicate you're in the same position as the person you're speaking to and want them to go perform a VERB in some location you're both not in. I stress** these combinations vary in meaning depending on the verb. Knowing the difference of 去 and 來 in how I explained it above should help you kickstart your understanding of when you to use 過來, 過去, 下來, 下去 etc. Links -- because there is no concrete universal rule.
