Does 由only have to be used with a specific person or can it be used with a company, organisation or department?
A: 由 can also be used with a company,organization or department.

她有具体问题。老早上他照着具体的内行。(I don't understand the meaning, let's talk it today)

Ellen for the correction at the bottom of this comment, you said I should use 把 instead of 带 which is fine I understand. Then in the expansion for Apartment Hunting there is 带 used in the sentence. So would 带 be used for people, e.g. I couldn't use 把 here?
我带你去看房
你能不能带电脑拉近一点？(你能不能把电脑拉近一点)

她有具体问题。老早上他照着具体的内行。(I don't understand the meaning, let's talk it today)
She has a specific problem. All morning she has been trying to find an expert to help her.
特别最好的重点比最不好的重点。（？） I forgot to add the word 突出.
The two sentences were: You should highlight the main points 'Especially the best compared to the worst points.'
他的业绩最低突出 （？） His performance stands out as being the worst.
部队的大将军让动员部队 （？）The General mobilised the army.
很多人动员去那个国，帮那个国的地人 （？）Lots of people went to that country to help the locals there. (I think I should have used 当地人 instead of just 地人.
