Answer 2

What are you having a hard time with?

Answer 3

1) It's referring to one, then you.

Answer 4

2) It's talking about Jill being sick, then malnourished
3) It's talking about going on, but then 'for' a drive

Answer 5

So for number 2 its wanting you to replace she with Jill?

Answer 6

No the noun is correct, it's the ill and malnourished that are not parallel. Because the sentence says 'not only', they should be the same thing. So I guess don't use 'not only'. I think it's something like: Jill is ill from lack of sleep and malnourished from a poor diet.
