Is there another correct way to translate this sentence?

Personne n'a ses clés ?
Does nobody have their keys ? 

"Does nobody have their keys?" strikes me as something that would rarely if ever be said in (American) English. Is there another correct way to translate this? Because this one will be really hard for me to remember because it seems so very strange.

Get recommended lessons by levelMy placement test put me at A2. I've been taking an A2 test, back to A0, then A1, and finally another A2. I'm not worried about A0 or A1 but I'd like to be able to take a look at what Kwiziq recommends for me in A2 before I take the last test. Unfortunately you seem to only get recommendations after you take a test (even though I know darn well Kwiziq is tracking me at every level.)

When asking question using the future tense of a verb, is inversion allowed. That's instead of saying Tu iras à la fête samedi ? Can one say iras-tu

Why "dans le frigo" instead of "du frigo?"One takes the beer not *in* the fridge but *from* the fridge, which should be "de", shouldn't it?

English translation of "une ovation publique".I wonder about the colloquial English translation of "une ovation publique". " A public ovation" is not a phrase which I have ever seen used, and for which I can't find an example on the internet. "Ovation" in English is almost universally used as a "standing ovation" for which the French appears to be "une ovation debout".
