I used énorme for huge and it got the redline with only 'immense' indicated as correct: a response here from Cécile some time ago stated she used 'énorme' when running through the exercise also. 

I frequently come across responses where it would seem either ensuite or puis can be used, but mostly only one is accepted, and I always seem to choose the "unaccepted" word ! (That is why my gambling is limited) Again, a previous response from Cécile in another exercise indicated they are essentially interchangeable, as Larousse also indicates.

Can both énorme and ensuite be added ?

My answer was, "de deux heures a..." which was marked correct. (Sorry can't do the accents here.)

Shouldn't this have read, "Ce magasin est fermé de quatorze heures a quatorze heures trente." ? 

Or: "Ce magasin est fermé de deux heures a deux heures et demie de l'apres-midi."?

These formats would have distinguished the time as being in the afternoon, not the early morning hours. Is the reason that they were not used because one can assume that a shop would be open during the daytime, not the wee hours of the morning? And, if that is true, is it common not to be specific unless absolutely necessary?
