Alas for clear-cut answers, I'm a writer, so more than one word comes to mind in many cases.
1. A body of water, smaller than a river, contained within relatively narrow banks.
Creek
2. The thing you push around the grocery store.
Shopping cart
3. A metal container to carry a meal in.
Lunchbox
4. The thing that you cook bacon and eggs in.
Frying pan
5. The piece of furniture that seats three people.
Couch
6. The device on the outside of the house that carries rain off the roof.
Gutters
7. The covered area outside a house where people sit in the evening.
If it's fairly small or covered, a porch. If it's large and uncovered--a deck.
8. Carbonated, sweetened, non-alcoholic beverages.
Soda
9. A flat, round breakfast food served with syrup.
Pancakes
10. A long sandwich designed to be a whole meal in itself.
Submarine sandwich
11. The piece of clothing worn by men at the beach.
Bathing suit (or a Speedo, but only if it really is a Speedo)
12. Shoes worn for sports.
Running shoes (since I run...sometimes). Otherwise, sneakers.
13. Putting a room in order.
Straightening up, or cleaning up.
14. A flying insect that glows in the dark.
Lightning bug
15. The little insect that curls up into a ball.
NA
16. The children's playground equipment where one kid sits on one side and goes up while the other sits on the other side and goes down.
Teeter-totter
17. How do you eat your pizza?
I pick it up and eat it starting from the pointy end. Since the only proper pizza has a thin, crispy crust, this is not a problem.
18. When private citizens put up signs and sell their used stuff.
Yard sale or garage sale, depending on the venue.
19. The evening meal.
Supper or dinner
20. The thing under a house where the furnace and perhaps a rec room are.
Basement
21. The thing that you can get water out of to drink in public places.
Water fountain, if it's plumbed. If it's a bottle on a stand, it's a water cooler.
