Error in English translation

In the quiz there's a sentence that reads:

Christophe finissait son déjeuner quand les autres sont arrivés.

The English translation says

Christopher was finishing his breakfast when the others arrived.

The quiz says déjeuner not petit-déjeuner.

A1 or A2 Exercise?

Having completed all the grammar lessons, I am now going through the listening exercises, (in order of levels), which I am enjoying as a great way to review lessons and vocabulary.

Just a note: I found this exercise among the A1 listening exercises, but above it is labeled as A2.

Maybe it is mislabeled?

Tu as des enfants?

I answered "je n'en ai aucun". Is this not correct as well as just "aucun" ? The example that Celine gives below seems to indicate that's an option.

Order of nouns

I read somewhere else that you always put the most important first, ie the thing or person that is missed, ie Jean manque à ma sœur ; my sister misses Jean , Jean lui manque ; she misses Jean. Is that a guide worth following?
