If you tell people WHY you want these basic questions answered, you might get some responses.
What it looks like is that you want to bluff your way through an interview and want someone here to do the homework for you. If that is not the case, let us know the reason and people will probably help.
1) what's the exact deff of a CLIENT.
Client is a 3 byte field which is part of the key for many SAP tables. Thus client creates an environment. You can have two environments in Development SAP. DV 010, DV 100. For all the tables where client is part of the key, data in different clients will be different. ABAP programs are client independent.
2) How to lock and unlock a table.
Create Lock object.
3) how to find afield existing in different tables.
Use SE11 and click on where used list.
4) Can I download a SAP script? if so how? how to transport my Script to production.
ABAP programs can be down loaded and uploaded very easily. SAPscript can not be done that way. But FORM INFO gives a listing of all definitions of a sapscript. But this information can not be uploaded. This can be transported using the standard transport facility.
5) What is a transport.
Typically each installation has DEV, TEST and PROD environments. Programmers develop in DEV environment. When a new program written or existing program is changed, SAP creates a transport object. This object contains all the objects that you have maintained. If you change a source member or create a table or add a field to existing table ....etc. When you are done and happy with your changes, you will transport your changes. This process will move all changed objects from DEV to TEST. After more testing in TEST, you will transport to PROD.
7) What are global variables and how can I define them.
In a simple ABAP program, data can be defined in the beginning of the program and that data is accessible through out the program. You can define variable with in a form. That data field is accessible only in that form. Thus, these fields are local. In the same way, if you define fields in TOP in a function module, they act as global fields. If you define a field in a function module, it acts as local.
In BDC, How to handle currency fields.
Typically you move amount to a C (char) field and use it in BDC.
Re:

Does this work? Or does it give data elements, not fields?
4) Can I download a SAP script? if so how? how to transport my Script to production.
Program RSTXSCRP will download layout sets into a file. (Not necessary for normal transport.)
