Grammar Review Using be and have

Grammar Review Using be and have. 
Task 1:
Study the following pairs of sentences to identify the use of be (am, is, are) and have (have, has). Do you notice the differences?

Examples:
1. a. I am sixteen years old.
b. I have an older sister and a younger brother.
2. a. Caroline is in the United States.
b. She has many friends from Indonesia.
3. a. Nina and Ami are active students.
b. They have many interesting hobbies.
4. a. I am a computer programmer.
b. I have many certificates that show my knowledge and skills in computer programming.
5. a. John is a barista in a luxurious cafe.
b. He has a lot of friends, who love the coffee he prepares.
6. a. We are amazed by the beautiful scenery.
b. We have many interesting places to visit in this country.

After observing the above examples, do you know how to decide whether to use am/is/are or have/has? Is it because the subjects are singular or plural? Do you also know when to use have/has instead of am/is/are? Is it because the sentences have complements? Is it because the sentences have objects?
