It seems to that this phrase means "I will go to work in public transport." In other words, she will be working for (or in) the public transport system. Shouldn't it be "J'irai à mon travail en transport en commun."?

I’m confused by the instruction given for how to use this phrase. Both present and imparfait are defined as “used to” in the examples. what am I missing? Of course for the very first question about this topic I bombed. And I don’t know why. Is there any additional instruction on this topic?

^ for this sentence, the speaker in the recording is a female voice. Wouldn't it be nouvelle if a woman is speaking?
Just checking: In looking at the sentence, "Écoutez cette conversation entre Marc et son amie Lola." It is son becuase it is his meaning Marc's friend, but amie becuase Lola is feminine correct? So, if I say "Ma meuillere amie est Laura. I use ma because I am female and meuillere amie because Laura is female. I could also say "Mon meuilleur ami, Charles."
I am curious about the construction of ...fait de lui... Why not ...lui fait...? It seems to me that 'him', in the English, is the indirect object of faire while Français is the direct object. I used ...lui fait..., which was not one of the accepted translations. Why?
