Here are the corrections and ticks for the sentences:

1. ✓ My cousin married Jenny a month ago.
2. They're going climbing this afternoon. (The word "to" should be removed)
3. I fell off my bike yesterday. (Past tense is used, so "have fallen" should be changed to "fell.")
4. ✓ I think scientists will not find life on other planets.
5. Did you worry yesterday? (The sentence should start with "Did.")
6. We haven't seen that film yet. (Use "haven't" instead of "didn't" to indicate the action is ongoing into the present.)

8. She's already taken her speaking exam. (Use "taken" instead of "took" to indicate a completed action.)
