For the quiz question "Life was harder in those days" I was marked incorrect for saying:

the answer was:

La vie était plus dure à cette époque-là

Why was my answer marked incorrect?

From time to time, in literature, I come across forms such as "parlé-je" e.g.

"Pourquoi parlé-je de Victor Hugo?"

Is this interrogative form still in use. Is it ever used in speech (probably not) or is it reserved for literary use?
