Here is the correct option for each of the sentences provided:

Have you seen my phone? I can't find it anywhere.

Option (B) anywhere is the correct choice. In this sentence, the word 'anywhere' is appropriate because it refers to the idea that the phone cannot be found in any location or place.


I heard voices outside, but when I looked, there was nobody.

Option (A) nobody is the correct choice. This sentence implies that even though voices were heard, upon looking, there were no people present.


Come and see the moon. It's so big and beautiful.

Option (A) the is the correct choice. "The moon" is used here to refer to the specific moon that orbits the Earth, and it is a proper noun, meaning it requires the definite article 'the'.


I really want to go to Australia.

Option (B) --- is the correct choice. In English, we do not use 'the' with most country names (Australia, in this case). However, 'the' is used with country names that include words like "kingdom," "states," or "republic" (such as "the United States" or "the United Kingdom"). This sentence refers to the country of Australia in general, so the article is not needed.
