Your answers to #1, #2, #3, #4 and #6 are correct. Your answer to #5 is incorrect.
Are you sure you typed #7 correctly? It seems a bit strange. #8 is a duplicate. |

The problem was that there was no "with" option.
I knew for " I am mad at you" but not "I am angry at you". |

The answer is "at".
"with" would also be correct, but, as you say, it is not an option. |

Is there not an answer key to these exercises, Salim?
Here is a hint for questions #9 and #11: like other negative adverbs, 'hardly' triggers inversion of the subject and auxiliary verb when it begins a sentence. So does the construction 'not only... but also'. _________________ Just remember... if the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off! |
