A: Most likely your dad is one of the insured. The witness would be somebody not involved in the accident who can verify the identity of insured individuals who are signing the document - possibly a notary.

I will say this though, you typed the word 'bolocks'. I assume you mean blocks however when dealing with insurance companies you very well could have meant 'bollocks'. Sorry, I couldn't resist making the joke.

I can't really make recommendations on what should be signed since that's a legal issue your father should bring up with legal counsel.

A: I am not sure I understand your question. Do you mean can you say this phrase ("It's just some guy I work with.") to a female co-worker? Yes, you can. "some guy" just means you don't know him well. (but "guy" here can only be a male. If you want to refer to a female you would say "some woman")

A: An “act of ____” is an action that shows an emotion. For example “an act of kindness,” “an act of hatred,” “an act of love.”

“Some other” refers to another thing like the thing you are talking about. The implication is that it can be any other thing, so they are just looking for any other “act of love.” They don’t need a specific “act of love,” they just need to find one.

A: I think school should allow students who live on campus. In the case of our town, we have no trains here so we need cars to go to school or to go shopping and so on. We can't go anywhere without cars. Of course, we have public bus services but it's too inconvenient. Also, I think young men and women should be able to travel more. It's ok to just travel around our town but we have more opportunities outside of our school. We should be able to join events held in other towns to be able to make friends or see new things. In addition to this, we can experience many things and get new opportunities. That's why I support the opinion that they should have cars.

A: You could say:
I prefer to live in a small town, because there is beautiful nature. I live in a small island called Okinawa in which there are some beautiful beaches and nature. I’m so proud of that. The air is much cleaner than one in a big city. Few people live in a small town, so their relationship is stronger and they are kind. Some people say small towns are inconvenient because of few facilities and little public services, but those make us friendly and helpful. This also keeps small towns from destroying nature. Nature heals us. Therefore, I want to live in a small town.

A: いいよ、と思いますけど
It would be a little more natural sounding if you say:
“more time to study their major”
“mistakes while choosing their future”
“some classes that aren’t apart of our major, like music, foreign languages, politics and so on, in freshman year; so we can touch on several studies”
“Then we can decide what studies we like and don’t like; so we make less mistakes when declaring our major”
“the policy that students”
