Un métier extraordinaire

Bonjour Madame,

I was attempting this quiz on this link- https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/my-languages/french/tests/take/1768714 but was unable to get the last sentence.

- Alors nous devons compter sur ceux qui se battent à nos côtés et que je suis fier d’appeler mes collègues.

Why ‘que’ has been used? Can’t dont be used to mean ‘of whom’?

Merci d’avance !

In an A2 test the correct answer to "She cries on purpose" was "Elle fait exprès de pleurer". Could "Elle pleure exprès" also be correct ?

Hello, this verb structure seems similar to plaire. Is there any reason plaire is not mentioned in this page? Just wondering. Merci beaucoup!

Re: Qu'aiment-ils?

The correct answer is given as What do they love? I thought that aimer is love when discussing people, therefore WHO makes more sense.

Should the correct answer be What do they LIKE?

What about Qu’adorent-ils?
