Answers to quiz questions are being changed

When I take the quizzes, the answers I choose aren't the ones showing when I get the review. It seems the quiz is changing my answers. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Elle ________ Franck ne vienne pas. She's expecting Franck not to come.

I answered this question with attends que and was marked wrong. In the notes on attendre que it says "to wait for [someone] i.e. Frank to do [something] i.e. not to come" why is my answer wrong?

La mieux

It says to use MIEUX for a general statement with être about something or someone being fine/OK/better/the best.

Can we say.... "C'est la mieux idée." ? [This/It is the best idea.]

Why/Why not?

ne...que

Hi, Can you please help me with this?________ une clé. (I have found only one key.) Why "Je n'ai que trouvé" is not accepted as a correct answer? But Only "Je n'ai trouvé qu'" and "J'ai trouvé seulement" are correct. I checked the theory but I think "Je n'ai que trouvé" is also correct.

Are there differences in meaning between these expressions ?

A lot to take in!

In English "the day after", "the next day" and the "the following day" mean the same. Likewise "the day before" = "the previous day". In French, do le lendemain, le jour d’après and le jour suivant /la veille, le jour d’avant and le jour précédent differ from each other in meaning or mainly in register?

Secondly, from the point of view of today, are l’après-demain and l’avant-hier used in conversation?

"une chambre double avec salle de bains", without article

Why is there no "une" before "salle de bains" in this sentence: "Oui, une chambre double avec salle de bains privative."
