Les étudiants ont été accueillis par le directeur 

Les étudiants étaient accueillis par le directeur.

Hi,

We can't hear "Apportez un pique-nique."

' never going to bed angry' should be surely present tense as they are still doing it? 

I knew that in inverted questions you use the subjunctive after verbs like 'Pensez-vous...'  If you start the question however with 'Est-ce que vous pensez...?' does that rule about the subjunctive not apply?  I ask because I had put 'Est-ce que vous pensez que ce soit un problème structurel' and this was marked with a correction to '.......c'est' instead of 'ce soit'

I spent a good couple of minutes trying to figure out what she was saying in the middle. I ended up submitting "Il fait trop chaud bon sauce bolognaise!" "Pour une" obviously makes more sense, but did anyone else have trouble making out those two words? It certainly sounded like "bon" to me.

I wront

qui s'asseyeront ensuite...Is it fine?

Merci

Just wondering why convenir is conjugated with vous as 'vous convient'.  Shouldn't it be vous convenez?  Please clarify.  Merci!
