All through the piece "news" is translated as "infos" except in the last sentence when it is "nouvelles". Any special reason for this, beyond some idiosyncrasy of language?

This, that and soIn discussing the use of "le" or " l' " in a response as a substitute for an idea in a previous statement the explanation is that in English we often use "that" or "it" in the same way. But in the translation you use the word "so," which is what we usually say. It's a small thing but I'd suggest adding "so" to those other words in the explanation.

Ouvrir dans le passé simple-Wordference lequel je souvent utilise me dit que ouvrir dans le passé simple est <ouvrit> et ne pas <ouvra>. Lequel est correct ou sont les deux correctes? C'est difficile d'avoir les notes parfaites quand il y a deux bonnes réponses.
