I do not understand the questionQu'est-ce qui est arrivé à Elsa ? - how does this translate to 'what happened to Elsa?' This is from the test questions. Kindly clarify.

Separation of pas ... du tout

I am surprised by the english translations provided above. For example:

I would translate the first as
"She's not at all stupid"

Elle n'est pas du tout stupide!
She's not stupid at all!

Elle n'est pas stupide du tout!
She's not stupid at all!
