11. The exam that every student failed is harder than the exam that every
student passed.

    le cipra poi ro tadni cu fliba ke'a cu nadmau le cipra poi ro tadni 
    cu snada ke'a

12. If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with.

  ganai do na ka'e kansa le se prami be do gi ko prami le se kansa be do

which in fact simplifies to:

  ga do ka'e kansa le se prami be do gi ko prami le se kansa be do

(usual caveat about causality)

13. The coach of the basketball team is looking for the tallest student.

    le ctuca be le lankyboi selkei bende cu sisku lo clarai tadni

(if the coach doesn't know who the tallest student is).     

    le ctuca be le lankyboi selkei bende cu sisku le clarai tadni

(if the coach is looking for a certain student, and the speaker describes
that student as "the tallest student". The coach may not even know that 
that student is the tallest.) 

14. The king of Sweden's only son is married to one of Herbert's daughters.

    le ropa bersa be le nolraitru be le sfero cu speni pa le tixnu 
    be la xerbert

15. Carla is the one freshman who aced every course in which she enrolled.

    la karlas cu du lo ropa cfatadni poi ke'a traji snada ro tercu'e

18. The former president of the United States is the only American who knows
the president of every country.

    lo pu jatna be le merko cu du lo ro merko poi se slabu ro jatna 
    be lo gugde

(Since there are more than one former presidents, I assume this is meant
as a generic claim. Or is "the former president" just the immediate 
predecessor of the current one?)

19. This is the dog that chased the cat that stalked the mouse that lived in
the house that Jack built.

    ti du le gerku poi jersi le mlatu poi kalte le smacu poi xabju
