Would not "préparez un bol de bouillie be acceptable?

Most of the lessons on this site help with grammatical understanding, however this is the first lesson I’m struggling to understand. I’ve found some comments useful after being overly frustrated with getting the quizzes wrong, but I feel this article needs an update for further clarity.

Are there different contexts where one can use "veut" instead of the "avoir envie de"?

For instance, why can't i say "je veut le chocolat"? When do i get to say "j'ai envie du chocolat"? 

Hello!  Why is bain plural here with an s?  I would expect there would only be one bathroom to each hotel room.

If I don't type with the accents that are part of French writing, will I still be understood?

If the sentence  is "Elle finira en prison pour avoir tué son amant." ....why does the English translation say "She will end up in prison for killing her lover" and not 'She will end up in prison for having killed her lover"....?

The final segment of this exercise to translate is, "my choice was long made!" .  I don't understand this phrase, does it mean "my choice was long ago made" or "my choice was made long ago?"

Is there any way to put the NEXT button next to the rating (smiley faces) BEFORE the lessons suggested? These dictation and writing exercises are so beneficial, but there is a lot of movement from keyboard to mouse to scroll past suggested lessons, after each small phrase. This physical repetitive movement is incredibly annoying and seems unnecessary. The best would be not having to switch to the mouse at all, that would be much more efficient ! Thanks for listening to my suggestion.

"When I have some money" is translated into "de l'argent". Why is it not "Des argents" or simply "l'argent"?
