Passover is celebrated primarily in the home. The first night in Israel and the first two nights outside of Israel involve the Seder. This is a religious service where the story of the Exodus is recounted around the dinner table. The people involved are family and friends.
It doesn't. The four "questions" introduce the "Magid" or recital of the Haggadah.The Magid stage of the seder is preceded by the Sanctification, then the first washingof the hands, then the eating of the parsely dipped in salty water, and then the breakingof the middle cake of matzah. These steps are all conducted before the four "questions".
Four is a recurring number during the seder (for cups of wine, four questions, four children, etc), but there aren't "4 promises".
Four full glasses of wine are drunk during the seder. Inside Israel, there is only one seder and outside of Israel there are two sederim.
The ritual foods at a Passover seder are Matzah (unleavened bread), Maror (bitter herbs), Karpas (a green vegetable, usually parsley), Beitzah (a roasted, hard boiled egg), Haroset (a mixture of apples, nuts, cinnamon, wine) and Z'roa (a shank bone, usually represented by a turkey neck or a beet). Four cups of wine are traditional as well. The main course can be almost anything, as long as it complies with Passover dietary laws.

Conducting the Pesach (Passover) Seder meal Refraining from work on the days of Passover when work is forbidden by the Torah Praying, and reading the Torah-portions for each day Avoiding leavened foods (bread, etc.) during Passover, as commanded in the Torah (Exodus ch.12)
This question likely comes from the differences in phrasing of the second question of "Ma Nishtana", the set of four Passover questions. The question is, "On all other nights we eat many vegetables, why on this night, [only] bitter herbs?". The word "only", put in brackets here, is inserted in some versions and removed in others. This is likely a problem deriving from remembering the questions of "Ma Nishtana" incorrectly, because the first question has a similar format: "On all other nights we eat both leavened and unleavened bread, why on this night, only unleaveaned bread?" Since the format was similar, the "only" in the first question, which is legitimate - no leavened products are eaten on Passover, it was incorrectly carried to the second question.As others have noted, Jews eat a variety of other vegetables on Passover, most notably the "karpas", which is a piece of parsley or celery that features in the Seder celebration. Additionally, most Jews will include some vegetables in the meal that is served during the meal-portion of the Seder. So, the premise behind the question of "only" is incorrect.
The answer to the 4 unanswered questions is whatever you want to answer them with my child
They sit like any one normally would, aside from a few occasions at the seder. When eating the Matza and drinking the four cups of wine, Jews recline to their left.
Four (All the answers here are answers from previous questions, but only 'Four' was a correct answer.)
