Sole trader

One person sets up and runs the company. The person provides all the capital and has unlimited liability for business debts, even if this means selling personal assets.

Limited company

In a limited company, the capital is divided into shares, which are held by shareholders. Shareholders have limited liability, but they can vote at the Annual General Meeting to elect the Board of Directors. There are two types of limited company:
1 In a private limited company, all shareholders must agree before any shares can be bought or sold.
2 In a public limited company, shares are bought and sold freely, for example on the stock exchange.

Partnership

A group of people provide the capital, set up the company and manage it together. There are two types of partnership:
1 Partners in an unlimited partnership are like sole traders---if the business fails they are fully liable for all debts, and may even have to sell personal assets.
2 In a limited partnership there can be sleeping partners who do not participate in the management of the company. Sleeping partners have limited liability---in the event of bankruptcy, they only lose their investment, not their personal assets.

Answer 1

.be just to 你用的位置很正确，国外口语也都那么用！
例如：
His job is just to help new foreign students settle down.
他们的工作只不过是帮助新来的外国学生安顿下来。

但可能把 value -valued 换成cherish-cherished更好些
更偏于“重视” 更偏于“珍惜”
2.
of great value=very valuable,
of great importance=very important,
写成这种形式的前提是value（名词，价值） ，importance（名词，重要性）有它的形容词对应形式valuable，important
而understand本身多用于动词，很少会用于形容词，就不那么写了。
如果这个动词转为形容词“易懂的”，就用easy to understand,类似的动词转形容词还有difficult to learn难学的

3.and they are not (all) the same.或者
and all of them are not the same.

例句：
Their tastes are not the same as the audience.
他们的品味并不是跟普通观众一样，

另外，最好把 are easy to answer for u换成are easy for to answer 读起来更顺一些，因为你后面还有and，这样更清楚些。

they are 还是不要省略的好，在长居中这样更清楚些。
有什么不懂的，可以随时hi我。
