Distinguishing between the correct prepositions Bonjour Madame Cécile !

A sentence mentions-

La compagnie pour laquelle je travaille a les meilleurs résultats du secteur.The company for which I work has the best results in the industry.

I would like to ask whether “dans laquelle” is also acceptable ?

Also if a sentence is given-

L’automne est la saison .................... les feuilles jaunissent.

I came up with the following options-

pendant laquelle/ dans laquelle/ en laquelle

Which of the above is grammatically accurate?

Je vous remercierais pour votre réponse.

Question needs rewording Nous sommes professeurs.'' Who can be speaking? Alain and Georges, Georges and Fiona, Fiona and Judy, Fiona, Georges. Why can't *Fiona* or *Georges* be speaking on their own? e.g Fiona is talking to a group of people about herself and another person. She says "Nous sommes professeurs". Likewise for Georges. The sentence does not require two people to be speaking simultaneously."

bad questionElle pardonne à Paul et elle .....(forgives us) I thought about this question and as far as I know either elle pardonne à nous or elle nous pardonne would be correct. I chose elle pardonne à nous thinking it was parallel structure, but it was marked incorrect. Tell me how I should have known the correct response.
