so, you would be working tomorrow is wrong? would can be used to make the sentence sounds softer?
It could be right if the sentence was like this: "So, if Joan called in sick, you would be working tomorrow." (You have to give the condition in which something WOULD be true.) Here's another example: If I wanted to make money, I WOULD go to work tomorrow. ^^

What's the meaning of SMILINGEST?
That's not even a legitimate word, but we'll play along. It probably means "having the biggest smile" or "smiling the most." Someone made it up. It's like saying "dancingest" or "laughingest."

"Maria is intelligent, BUT she is not active in class." What is BUT? Conjunction, interjection, preposition?
In that example, it's a conjunction. More specifically, it's a COORDINATING CONJUNCTION that connects two independent clauses (complete sentences).
You can read more about coordinating conjunctions (aka "FANBOYS") here: http://tmblr.co/Z90tLy1hnXT9o ^^

which is more accurate synonym of 'inquisitive', curious or questioning?
That's tough to say, since it means both. A child who keeps asking, "Why?" is inquisitive (curious), but so is the journalist who asks tough questions during interviews.

her death is/was my fault?
It depends on when her death happened. If it happened a long time ago: "Her death WAS my fault." If it just happened, "Her death is my fault."
But to be honest, both are bad. "I was responsible for her death" (past) and "I am responsible for her death" (present) are better. ^^

It have or it has? :O
It HAS. "It" is singular; "has" is also singular.

So, how do we use "in the effort of"? My teacher asked us to make examples using "in the effort of" but I have no idea how to. Could you explain it to me? Thank you.
We respectfully disagree with your teacher's advice. There is no reason to ever use "in the effort of" or "in the effort to."
If your teacher absolutely insists on it, here's an example: We study grammar in *an effort to* improve our English skills.
Here's another: The amount of work involved *in the effort of* making healthy snacks is too much.
Even though it's not on this list, look at all the inflated phrases you should avoid using. Use the concise versions. ^^

Difference between "where" and "in which"? Are they interchangeable?
They mean the same thing, but they are not always interchangeable:
- This is where I live. ≠ This is in which I live. ("This is the house in which I live" would be right, but it sounds overly formal.)
- This is where I live. ≠ This is in which I live. ("This is the house in which I live" would be right, but it sounds overly formal.)
