why is et elle adore les livres and not des livres? is't it loving just books and not some specific "definite" books?

Why passé simple is used in sentence instead of le subjonctif
Hi - I'm having a great time taking the tests - and I miss some questions simply because I don't have the accents on my keyboard. - Otherwise enjoying it!
Regarding 'Ils ________ pendant les vacances." you give the answer as 'auront grandi'. Reverso gives both an avoir and an etre form forr the future anterior of grandir. I assumed as this was intransiitive it would be the etre form?
The word "toujours" is confusing here. Why doesn't Bastien respond in the imperfect to express his habitual actions and say "je faisais toujours comme ça" instead of saying "j'ai toujours fait comme ça..."? He has "always" left his clothes on the floor and still intends to do so. Shouldn't this scenario be expressed by the imperfect? Thanks for any help.
Would this sentence be correct?
Je me réveillé à huit du matin. Nous sommes allées du faire shopping. Lorsque je suis rentré. Je pratiqye Mon français et je regarde le télévision.
Je nettorai ma chambre demain. Aussi je parle à Mon copain. Sure le telephone. Aujourd'hui je Marche dans mon visions.
Merci pour votre aider
I have already pointed out that it has turned out to be impossible to introduce a cedilla in our responses, either using the directions on your page or keyboard commands that usually works for MS Word. So, I will always be faulted for this apparent mistake even though I have done my best to avoid it.
Nous étions tous chocolat
Is this an idiomatic expression? It's not clear to me what this means. It seems that Julien forgot to buy the chocolate eggs, so does this expression mean that they had no chocolate? I've looked it up in dictionaries and online translators, but nothing comes up!
