Answer 1

let me try to help:

1. neither. "i will see what i can do" means "i will look into the matter, get some reply about the item you're inquiring about, and get back to you." eg, you ask when the next stock of a certain product will come in. the person doesn't know and says "i will see what i can do." that person then calls up the supplier or asks his superior or calls their factory. he gets an estimated date of when the product should arrive to his shop. then he tells you the date. understand?

2. neither, your answers just don't sound right. "Let's see how i can get used to it" means i'll try or find out ways to tolerate something i actually dislike/detest. eg, you hate pets. but your spouse loves pets. you decide to compromise by saying "Let's see how i can get used to it." you give a 1 month trial period and try to feed the pet, clean the pet, talk to the pet, bring it for walks, etc.--these are ways you try to get used to something you don't like. after 1 month, if you grew to like the pet, you keep it. if not, you can sell it off. understand?

Answer 2

These are more colloquial uses of the word "see", meaning I'll try to do something, but I won't promise that I will be able to.

#1 is a very common sentence in English...you'd hear it from a sales customer service person, for example, who may or may not be able to help you, or willing to bend the rules for you, but doesn't want to say "no" outright.

#2 Sounds odd, but I'd understand it to mean "I'll try to get used to it, but I may never manage."

Answer 3

1 NEITHER
2.CLOSER TO aA BUT NEITHER

1. I WILL TRY TO FIND OUT WHAT I CAN DO
2. I WILL DO IT AND FIND OUT IF I CAN GET USED TO IT
BUT TO BE HONEST, THE SENTENCE IS NOT GOOD ENGLISH ANYWAY!
