Unlike the examples in the explanation materials, THE question /answer is incorrect.  The review materials limit the number of people to one actor and one actress (only two people). In the exam question, their is an unknown number of people (could be 100) therefore the person speaking is unknown.

Is there any difference in meaning/nuance/register between

'Ce magasin est fermé de deux heures à deux heures et demi'

and

'Ce magasin est fermé entre deux heures et deux heures et demi'? 

I think I tend to use the latter more often, and I'm now wondering whether it's incorrect, or makes me sound odd.

Just wondering why these exercises aren't marked automatically.   I think the whole thing would flow much better if we could go straight from one section to the next.

I seem to remember having learned that the partitive article is not used to introduce the subject of a sentence.  Please comment.

Why is the expression not included in the list of given words? Surely it is less common than say enfin, car which are included?
