Incorrectly placed clue ?

The clue on the 2nd last screen is ' it = general statement ' but there is no 'it' in the sentence being translated,  just 'I find that topic really interesting.'  

The clue is misleading given the answers suggested, not unexpectedly, use ' ce sujet ' or ' ce thème ' . 

On the following screen "I am going to buy it straight away. " In this case 'it' refers to a specific novel, so 'general statement' is not correct either.

I don't think the clue is helpful or necessary on either screen.

Question about punctuation In the first sentence, Bonjour is part of the sentence. In the second sentence, we have Bienvenue as a stand alone and not part of "Nous avons..." If the person had replied Bonjour instead of Bienvenu, would Bonjour be included in the second sentence, i.e. Bonjour, nous avons... ? Similarly, the last sentence includes bonne visite. How does one know when to include these sort of expressions in the sentence or to have them stand alone ?

Why are coudre, moudre and hair always part of every C1 test?

I'm curious about why there's always a question about coudre, moudre and hair in the C1 tests. I understand that they're irregular and need to be learnt, but the questions are always in the present tense, and it seems pretty straightforward for C1. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to make them e.g. A2, and include a wider range of irregular verbs? I feel there are other questions that would be more appropriate and useful for C1.

Not complaining :-), just curious.
