2. ¿Nos trae el botones las maletas a la habitación?
3. ¿Les dan gafas de sol los vendedores a los turistas?
4 ¿Te compra botas en el invierno tu mamá?
5 ¿Les muestra a ustedes el traje el dependiente?
6. ¿Me vas a buscar la revista en la librería?
These are my answers

I'll send this to our Spanish expert, SraJMcGin.
First of all, notice the different word order between questions and answers.
1. In the question, the subject is inverted, or in other words, the verb comes before the subject.
In the answer then, the subject should come before the verb = No, Rolando no le escribe un correo electrónico a Miguel. (or No, Rolando no le escribe a Miguel un correo electrónico.)
2. Same comment here about word order.
3. Same comment PLUS you have not given the indirect object pronoun, which must be there = No, los vendedoras no les dan gafas de sol a los turistas.
4. This would be much better with the subject, so we would know that you know how to change it from the question. = No, mi mamá no me compra botas en el invierno.
When it comes to a question, try these steps: 1) look at the Spanish 2) translate the question into English = Does your mother buy you boots in the winter? 3) Now answer FIRST in English = No, my mother does not buy me boots in the winter. 4) Finally, put that answer into Spanish and then, it's also a good idea to look at your answer to see if you elicit the SAME question as the original.
5. Same comment PLUS you should try those same steps with this question! = No, el dependiente no nos muestra a nosotros el traje.
6. Those steps are necessary also for this one! No, no te voy a buscar la revista en la librería.
I'll "flag" this one, in case you have any further questions.
