What does this term mean in the context of a hotel and restaurant ?   BTW, thanks for another challenging C1.  I cannot yet imagine understanding all of this without the possibility of repetition.   Still plodding along with a score of 57/80 with considerable repetition required.

Bonjour

Why is anime not correct? What is the difference in use of anime with respect to vivant?

Merci

Chris' comment below about modal verbs (All modal verbs, like pouvoir or devoir require the infinitive, no matter which tense or mode they are in.) was an eye-opener for me as to how pouvoir and devoir fit in the big picture. Perhaps a short paragraph about modal verbs in general would be useful to others. Thanks!

The passive voice in several examples where we needed "was sent" and "had prepared" used plus que parfait ie) était envoyé and avait préparé, but for "the students were welcomed", my use of étaient accueillis was incorrect and the correct answer was the p.c.: Les étudiants ont été accueillis was correct. This seems illogical to me. Please explain the difference.
