I chose je voudrais because of the impossibility of being le maitre de l'univers so why would one say je veux?

Could someone please explain why my answer is wrong?

Question: Vous _______ le bus arrive.

My answer: Vous attendez le bus arrive.

I just don't understand why it's wrong.

The correct answer is:

Vous attendez que le bus arrive.

Au cas où + conditionnel

Then you put 2 examples that do NOT use the conditionnelle. I am now totally confused.

Then you use juste sometimes and not others with no explanation.

Please explain full.

Can I save this dictée?

In the example Il est celui qui mange le plus bruyamment, why is il est used instead of c’est?

I thought when être was followed by a noun or pronoun the subject would be c’est, like c’est mon fils or c’est la mienne. Isn’t celui also a pronoun? Is it because il is also the subject of the verb manger?

Isn't the meaning of "d'ici neuf heures" actually "within nine hours"?

In other words, doesn't "Il faut que je sois parti d'ici neuf heures" essentially mean "I'll have to be gone in nine hours"?
