Does one sided love make sense?

Nothing in love makes much sense and at the same time it makes complete sense in all aspects. Love is strange in its own ways.Although one sided love generally ends bad but the love is in true pure form without any demands in return, the selfless types. One just keeps loving the person irrespective if the person opposite reciprocates the same feelings. One just wants to spend more and more time with him/her. Knowing even a bit more of him/her as a person makes you happy and more close to him/her. His/her priorities somewhere somehow makes their way into your priority list too.If you have realised that you have entered the phase of one sided love then it's better you prepare your heart to get rid of all expectations from the person you love. Just be the you, you used to be. Coz expectations lead to disappointments and things start turning bitter in between you two. Try not screwing up what you two share in the hope of turning one sided love into two sided. And if it's meant the person you love will also reciprocate the love you have for him/her some time.

Does it make more sense to rent a car than own one?

Yes, the article has put a very objective view of the cost. However in India owning a car is more than just a means of transport. Over and above this if you love to drive then there is no other option but to buy a car. Your own car will give you more freedom than if you are renting a car from ola, uber etc. The article has not considered the cases where you are using your car for weekend getaways etc.Finally it depends on your need and how you will be using a car, and hence it cannot be black and white for every individual.

Which ones make sense?

All #1-4 are incorrect.
STOP + TO + VERB means that you stop (doing something) to do a different thing.
So, I was watching TV. Then I stopped to eat dinner. (I stopped watching TV to eat dinner)
He was working hard, then he stopped to smoke a cigarette.

STOP + VERB + ING means that you stopped doing that verb.
I stopped watching TV. I stopped working. I stopped smoking.
======================================...
On the other hand, START + TO + VERB is the same meaning as START + VERB + ING
It started raining = It started to rain. Exactly the same meaning.
======================================...
So now the question for #5-16 is if the verbs tenses are correct or not.

Simple past--all are correct
Present perfect--all correct

Present continuous and present perfect continuous (is starting/has been starting) are good with other verbs but not really correct with start and stop. Continuous verbs mean that they are continuing. However, START and STOP don't continue. They just start or stop. the stopping can't continue.

entity
essence
euthanasia
innate
moribund
mortify
naive
nascent
nonentity
orthopedics

Choose one word that fits the sentence.

Is it 'that makes sense' or 'that make sense'? Why?

The answer depends on what comes before these clauses. If nothing, then the correct answer is “That makes sense.” “That” is singular and therefore the verb is in the third person singular “makes.” However, if the examples are used as relative clauses inside a sentence then it depends on what the relative pronoun “that” refers to. Some examples:“Here are some examples that make sense.” In this case the verb “make” agrees with “examples.”“Here is an example that makes sense.” This time the verb is singular to agree with the singular “example.”More examples:“He provided numerous arguments that make sense.”“He only provide one argument that makes sense.”

Which one makes more sense. Being paid to ask questions or being paid to answer questions?

Both make sense, but being paid to answer questions is more common. Many professionals and tradespeople are essentially answering questions. E.g. “can we make a building this big without it falling down?” (Engineering), “Is this person guilty of a crime?” (Police & Legal), “what is causing this person’s symptoms?” (Medicine), “how can I stop this sink leaking?” (Plumbing).Answering questions is often much harder than asking them. It’s quite easy to ask (e.g.) “how can we safely transport humans to Mars”, but much harder to answer it. So usually it’s the answering of questions that pays more.However, asking important and relevant questions is the job of artists (and philosophers). Good art usually doesn’t provide answers - it asks the questions and prompts us to find the answers ourselves. Art that explicitly provides answers is usually viewed more as propaganda.So it makes sense for people to be paid for asking and answering questions.
