Please help me choose the correct answer:
This piano is like a toy (for/to) him.
As the youngest child (of/in) an (artistic/artist) family....
They lived in very bad conditions, having no electricity (or/and) running water.
Music is a passion (of/with) him.
(on/in/at) a beautiful night like this, ... ( I heard a song named "on a night like this")
Someone has left (their/his) coat here.
(Wait for/wait) your turn
And what's the difference in meaning between "a satisfying meal" and "a satisfactory meal"?
Thanks.

Please help me choose the correct answer:
This piano is like a toy (for/to) him. (I think both are possible, but "to" is more common).
As the youngest child (of/in) an (artistic/artist) family... (of/in are both OK. Choose artistic).
They lived in very bad conditions, having no electricity (or/and) running water. (Both OK. Choose "or").
Music is a passion (of/with) him. (With).
(on/in/at) a beautiful night like this, ... ( I heard a song named "on a night like this") (On is the right answer).
Someone has left (their/his) coat here. (Choose "his." "Their" is also used informally).
(Wait for/wait) your turn. (Both are used. Choose "wait for").
And what's the difference in meaning between "a satisfying meal" and "a satisfactory meal"?
Example: She prepared a satisfactory meal. It contained all the recommended food groups: protein, vegetables, carbohydrates, etc.
It was a satisfying meal. There was plenty for everybody. We all enjoyed the delicious food and noone went home hungry.
