In case the jack is loose, you should unscrew it from the guitar body. After that, you will be able to find a hex bolt at the base of the jack, tigheten that bolt with wrench and the jack will be able to grip the cable stronger. Check before screwing it back into the guitar body.

How can I learn to play the guitar in one week?
It's impossible. If you are fully dedicated even then it will take probably 3-5 months to clear your basics. You have to give minimum 6 months if you want to clear you basic stuff and minimum 1 year if want to play decently.

When changing the broken string, should I buy same company and model?
Yes, You can go for the same or you can use another. Most probably the last two strings break, so you can purchase any. If other string then, try and go for the same.
