Video contradicts lesson

I am confused about the position of adverbs because the video says they go right after the verb they are modifying but when I answered the mini quiz in that way I got 0/2

Any thoughts?

Je possède un blouson _______ cuir

In the grammar lesson, it explains that you can use either "en" or "de" in "un sac .... cuir". So to avoid confusion, would it not be better to show that both "en" and "de" are also both acceptable answers in "Je possède un blouson _____ cuir". Or are they?

n'importe qui vs quelqu'un

in lesson it says to use quelqu'un for a question, making it sound like should use n'importe qui for all other affirmative anyone. Yet question stating? stole my bag n'importe qui is marked wrong and quelqu'un is stated as correct answer.

I'm missing something, could anyone plaese explain? thanks

Use of indirect objectHi, I hope you can help with a grammar question. I'm doing a writing exercise: C1 Camping in the Woods. The phrase: "The invigorating wind lashed her face Translated" as "Le vent vivigant lui foullait le visage" I infer that "lui" is added to clarify that the wind is not "whipping its own face". The exception doesn't seem to be covered in the Kwizbot grammar notes (at least as far as I can see). Kind regards, Glen

question re kwiz question

Bonjour:) Would you please review the kwiz answer I missed in the above lesson? I did not find any of the possible choices for an answer to be particularly applicable. The actual answer seemed like it was l'imparfait situation in the past so I did not choose that one. I knew "built" was not a verb used in the choice but it seemed to imply the present tense to me. Anyway, many thanks for some clarification on this question at your convenience I hope? Merci.
