I don't understand why "étrangères" is at the end of the sentence?

if it's talking about all those subjects being foreign, then the English is very misleading because that's not what I understood from it at all. I also agree with other comments saying how a lot of what's in these exercises are not covered in lessons. For example I have never seen the expression "en quoi" and don't really get why it's used here? Why is there no lesson on this and yet it's expected as the only correct answer to one of these questions?

and why is there "d'" in "mon but est D'avoir ma licence"??

'Nombreuses' but not 'beaucoup' ?

In the two optional answers below, why hasn't 'beaucoup' been given as an option to 'nombreuses'?

Bien que je veuille me reposer, je n'EN ai pas le temps !

This is not a question about the subjunctive mood, but the sentence was an exercise of it, so I ask my question here.

What is the role of "en" in the following sentence: "Bien que je veuille me reposer, je n'EN ai pas le temps !" Does it mean "I don't have the time for it."? Could you also just write "Bien que je veuille me reposer, je n'ai pas le temps !" without the "en"?

< Frapper >for 'clap' and < ramper > for crawl

< Frapper dans ses (les) mains > is acceptable, but is getting the red line currently.

< ramper > also got the red line but is acceptable for 'to crawl', as used by Pampers :
