Il m'a laissé tomber

The storyteller is a woman. So, why isn't it "Il m'a laissée tomber"? The direct object is a woman (feminine) and it appears before avoir in the passé composé.

Confused. In previous lesson: use c'est for general things (la soupe, c'est délicieux=(drinking)soup is delicious), il, elle for specific things: la soupe, elle est délicieuse=the (specific) soup is delicious. I just don't know how to fit c'est pratique, les ciseaux, c'est ma maison, and c'est bientôt les vacances info the "general format". Can you help?

Agreement with Qui as a relative pronounIn the sentence, "C'est moi qui parle au prof '', does the verb agree with qui (usually 3rd person singular) or with what ''qui '' represents? Ex: Ce sont nous qui parle au prof .... ou .... Ce sont nous qui parlent au prof .... ?

Please review the logic behind "Quand on ouvre les cadeaux ?" being incorrectPlease go back to the logic behind why "Comment tu vas" (question - subject - verb) is correct, but "Quand on ouvre les cadeaux ?" is an incorrect question form. They both have the same structure of Question - subject - verb. Thanks you so much for your help. Tom
