How would you rank the above-mentioned 5 alternatives in order to ask someone politely to do something?

For example:

1. Veuillez laisser un message.

2. Laissez un message.

3. Laisser/ez un message, s'il vous plaît.

4. Merci de laisser un message.

5. Nous vous invitons à laisser un message.

Hello, I'm wondering why the example in the lesson "J'ai remercié Lucas de m'avoir racompagnée hier" would have the feminine past participle following "m'avoir." Thanks for any help with this. 

Utter nonsense.  Both those statements (ie, "speak Spanish fuently: or "speak fluent Spanish" are 100% interchangeable. If anyone tells you different, they're not native English speakers (or they're very poorly educated). 

I'm getting the impression that the people who are setting these tests are not fluent English speakers. 

The dictée is missing "mélange dans un moule".

I am not sure if this is perhaps different with American English but as someone from the UK this sounds like Anne and Antoine are in the process of going somewhere to walk their dog e.g. in their car driving to a forest.  It does not imply that they are in the process of actually walking their dog.  I agree that there is a subtlety specifically with the question which is that the phrase includes "with their dog" but the "are going for" implies that they are not actually yet walking their dog but intend to go for a walk with their dog.  For instance if I were to say "I am going shopping to buy some food" it means that I am not actually in the process of doing the shopping.  Can you please clarify if "se promènent" is the actual current act of doing something or describing the intention to do the act?

What does the translation of the verb lofer (to luff) mean? I've never heard this word before thanks
