Why does this sentence use "en" instead of "dans"? I thought "You got into the car quickly" should be "Tu es monté dans la voiture rapidement." Is there a difference in meaning or can I use "en" and "dans" interchangeably to express getting into a car?

Subjonctif(espérer, croire...) on future

Hello there ! I've got a question about subjonctif, can we conjugate these verbes: {penser, croire, imaginer, espérer} on "futur proche ou future simple"?

I mean are they common?

Ex: Après le procès de la semaine prochaine, Julie croira que Margaret est innocente.

And also :Après le procès de la semaine prochaine,Julie ne croira pas que Margaret soit innocente.

Question: You remind them to make their beds.

This was a multiple choice question. The correct answer was given as "Tu leur rappelles de faire leur lit." Why isn't it "Tu leur rappelles de faire leurs lits." ?

Is the prepositions in the following sentences used correctly with 'copier'?

1) To copy (record) something onto a notebook : copier qch. dans un carnet ?

2) To copy (fraudulently) the exercise from a friend : copier l'exercice sur un ami ?

3) To copy some sentences from a book : copier des phrases sur un livre ?

Lesson lacking detail

There is nothing in this lesson that shows or tests conjugation of 'faire exprès de' other than in passé composé, with the subtle exception of the unexplained example where il vaut ... faire appears. The sentence "Elle fait exprès d'être en retard" would be an opportunity to introduce a conjugation of faire in a form other than 'fait', and that would be helpful. Why not change it to "Elles etc" or "Nous etc"? It would be useful to have information on present and future tense conjugations - or at least a note to indicate that the reason every example is fait exprès de is that every example (bar one) is in passé composé.
