1 Что и когда вы купили? (последняя вещь, что мы купили был 
увлажнитель воздуха. Мы купили его неделю назад.
1 Well, the last thing we bought was а humidifier. We bought it a week ago. 
          (хьюмидифайэ - увлажнитель воздуха)
2 Почему вы захотели его купить?
2 We wanted to buy it because in winter the air in the flat is very dry because of hot radiators and mum complained about it. She said she had dry cough because of such dry air in the flat. (Мы захотели его купить потому, что зимой воздух в квартире из=за горячего отопления становится очень сухим и мама жаловалаь на это и даже говорила, что у неё иногда бывает сухой кашель от такого сухого воздуха.)
3 Что вы сделали, когда принесли его домой?
When we brought it home we waited for an hour when it gets room temperature and meanwhile studied the instruction for it.- Когда мы принесли его домой, мы выдерживали его час при комнатной температуре, и тем временем изучали инструкцию.
4 Легко было им пользоваться?
Yes, it really was. Just to pour some water in it, plug into the socket and push the power (operating) button. Да, действительно легко. Лишь налили в него воду, воткнули вилку в розетку и нажали кнопку включения.
5 C ним стало легче или труднее?
As for me I didn't feel great difference but mum said the air became not so dry as it was before. - Что касается меня я не заметил большой разницы, но мама говорит, что воздух стал не такой сухой, как раньше.
6 Как часто вы им сейчас пользуетесь?
  Almost every night.( We use it every night) - Почти каждую ночь.

Mr Meeks said that there was no use in sending an advertising to his sister because she could not read.

It was ni use arguing with the detective, as he was so silly.

There was no use in waiting for Mary S. in that crowded district, as she didn't live there any longer.

It was no use in addressing that detective, because he demanded so much money for solving mysteries and crimes.

What's the use of employing such a detective if he hardly fits his job?

What's the use of waiting till the spring if we can solve the problem in no time?

what's the use of spending so much money on the detective if we can employ a cheaper one?
