As « après-midi » can be either masculine or feminine, both « cet après-midi » and « cette après-midi » should be considered as correct answers in this exercise, but are not.

The Académie-Française notes preference for use of the masculine, but still accepts both as correct. It would be reasonable to advise « cet après-midi » as the best choice, with « cette après-midi » as an acceptable alternative

Mon mari nous rejoindra après s'être raséIn this example the husband's action has not happened yet but is envisaged. So although the lesson notes talk about this construct referring to past actions, is that correct?

Avoir l'air mal

Can you give me some guidance on when to use mal as an adjective. I wrote "le reste du casting n'avait pas l'air mauvais".

I believe it is similar to bon v. bien as an adjective. I read somewhere that bon is used to describe taste, smell, physical sensation or a person's level or quality Otherwise, use bien as the adjective. Is this correct and does it apply to mauvais v. mal? Thanks.
