I think I've noticed that хлеб is pronounced "chleb" (well, with a rough ch sound at the beginning) rather than what I would expect: chlyeb. Am I wrong about this?

Well, the and this are not really the same things in English. The latter is translated as этот to Russian, but since Russian doesn't have articles, the should be omitted.

Этот мальчик ест мой хлеб. Не принимает. Хотя когда изучаешь английский, всегда the просит переводить как этот, эта.
I think the English for ест should be 'The boy has my bread' not 'is eating'

"The boy has my bread" - "У мальчика есть мой хлеб". Now spot 3 differences between this sentence and the one proposed as the right answer here. :)
