Answer

Brief Explanations:

  • Telling Rob the location is dangerous (1st option) is good as it informs him of risks.
  • Stopping talk (2nd) avoids communication, not helpful.
  • Asking for details (3rd) helps understand Rob's plans to guide him.
  • Advising to avoid drugs/alcohol (4th) is a positive suggestion if he goes.
  • Offering another activity (5th) provides a safe alternative. So the correct options are the 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 5th.
