'He was holding court in the last seat' can you tell me what this sentence means?

To "hold court" means "to be the center of attention," so in that sentence, it means "(As he sat in the last seat) Everyone was watching him and paying attention to everything he did and said."

It means "The children WILL NOT go hungry on my watch." ("Shan't" = shall not, which basically means "will not.")

When should i use 'stressed' as an adjective?

When you mean "worried and unhappy because you have too much work to do or too many problems to handle"; it's often used with "out":
- Nan is STRESSED OUT because she has to prepare a lengthy speech.
- Henry is STRESSED OUT because he has a lot of writing to do.
- Peter is less STRESSED because he is done with his major project.

What does this lyrics from the song I know I'm not the only one by Sam Smith mean? "But when you call me baby, I know I'm not the only one"

He's saying that even though you call me "Baby," I know that you also call other people "Baby." In other words, "I'm not the only one you love."

So how about this.. I dont want tea anymore or any more?

Both are right ... if you mean that you no longer drink tea, e.g., "After you told me how terrible tea is, I don't want tea anymore/any more."
If you like tea but had too much, you would say "I don't want any more tea (right now)."

What is the different between 'Either, Or'..and 'Neither, Nor'?

"Either ... or" means one or the other:
- Nan wants to go to EITHER Hawaii OR Belize this summer. (She wants to go to one or the other.)
"Neither ... nor" means not this and also not that:
- Nan wants to eat NEITHER pizza NOR hot dogs for lunch. (She doesn't want pizza, and she also doesn't want hot dogs.)

How to improve pronunciation when speaking English? I've been recording my voice but it doesn't sounds well. I'm not living in the English speaking country but I want to practice as well.

One of our best friends is a voice-over actor, and even though he was born and raised in America, he practices pronouncing and enunciating words at least an hour a day—to make sure that he gets the different accents (British, Southern, San Fernando Valley, Scouse, etc.) down perfectly.
Unfortunately, the only way to improve pronunciation is to practice. Listen to native English speakers' pronunciations (from TV shows, audiobooks, podcasts, news broadcasts, etc.) and then follow them.
Good luck! ^^

which is true "we never know what would happen" or "we never knew what would happen"? thankyou for answering my question:)

"We never knew what would happen" ("knew" is past tense; "would" is past tense). "We didn't know what would happen" is also right ("didn't" is past tense; "would" is past tense).
You could also write "We never know what will happen" for the present tense.

Our dog just died. It's so sudden that we are too shocked to cry. Is this correct? Or should I use the past tense?

"Our dog just died. It happened so suddenly that we are too shocked to cry."
