Help with a question?

Can someone please tell me why HIS in question one is La and not Sa? I have contacted two French teachers who both say the answer to this question is Sa referring to someone else and would only be La if referring to yourself....

Please advise per my screen shot above...

Thank you in advance

Le moule (mould) needs qualification.

I had to resort to my dictionary as this was not clear which type of mould was meant.

A shape as opposed to a fungus as in going mouldy.

À Pâques or le jour de PâquesHere's the example the lesson gives: À Pâques, les enfants vont à la chasse aux oeufs. "à" is used because "in general" this happens. 1. "On Easter Day I have lunch with my family." -- is also a general statement. A specific statement would be: 2. "On Easter Day I will have lunch with my family." But you are saying the answer for 1. (in my test session) is "le jour de" for a specific statement instead of "à" for a general statement." Please explain.

Self study guidance/planning?Hello. I have decided to work towards the DELF A2. I have a native french partner who is willing to support me with reviewing my progress, and a selection of text books from previous (failed) attempts to do attend french classes. I'm more motivated than the past as we'll be moving to France! Amazing what pressure can do! I am trying to find suggested plans and structures to guide my learning - something a classroom would offer. The Kwiziq guidance for grammar at each level is invaluable, the advice on Lawless French and a handful of mock exams - so I'm not completely at a loss. However, I wonder if people know of any other helpful resources specifically to support the self-study planning and structure towards A2?
