Aucun(e) ne

Salut!

The correct answer in this exercise was "Tous les gosses y vont, mais aucun ne prend le train."

Equally, could you just say "Tous les gosses y vont, mais personne ne prend le train." Does it have the same meaning and is it correct?

Also, I thought aucun(e) ne was reserved for things rather than people?

Is it sur or sans ?

J'ai écouté plusieurs fois et j'ai entendu "sans votre cahier" mais la réponse correcte est "sur votre cahier." Est-ce que j'ai raison ? Il me semble que "sans" soit correcte parce que le prof veuille que les étudiants répondent aux questions sans aide de leurs cahiers.

jeunes/nouveaux maries

What's the rationale for using 'jeunes maries' (sorry, doesn't do accent in the boxes) and not 'nouveaux maries' here?

Glitch in these exercises

There is a glitch in the writing and dictation exercises -- when you finish typing and hit enter (or whatever), it moves directly to the next portion to read/listen to without giving the option to grade it. It's frustrating.

A2 not B1 as email indicated

The email labelled this exercise as B1, but once opened is labeled A2. I thought It was rather easy.

ce qui lui valut de recevoir

I’m not familiar with this use of "valoir" and was expecting a causative construction like "faire recevoir" - can someone kindly help me with a reference?

Also the end of the first sentence "in the women's right struggle" UK English would usually have "rights" in the plural, as in French.

Les mêmes scientifiques

I have gotten this same question wrong several times and I still don't know why. "Les mêmes scientifiques". It is an adjective which should agree in number with the plural "scientifiques". Please help Thanks, Patti
