We expect everything from him?I think this lesson needs to be broken up into 2-3 smaller lessons. Since "On s'attend à tout de sa part" means "We expect anything from him." To say we expect EVERYTHING from him, do we just remove "à"? Thanks.

"ils" vs. "elles""ils" is given as the correct answer and "elles" is marked wrong. Why can't "they" be translated as "elles"?

Simon m'attend à la gare." can mean expects me at the station?I thought that only with the reflexive s'attendre à, would it be translated as expect. Is that an incorrect understanding on my part?

Vais choisir vs. choisiraisIs “je vais choisir” absolutely incorrect, or is it just not as formal as “je choisirais”?To my eye, it’s “I’m gonna/going-to say” as oppose to “I would say” - the former being a more casual expression, the latter being more grammatically correct (and/or “more elegant” as some of the pros on here are fond of saying.)
