Do you recommend listening and repeating a listening exercises until I get it right, or just about right, or take one exercise and then move on to the next? Thanks!

Tartine vs tranches du painI seem to recall in a recent exercise, probably one of this weekend's workout that tranche du (de) pain was the preferred answer for toast and that tartine was also given as a possibility. In this exercise, tartine was the only acceptable translation for a slice of toast. Is this an oversight?

using le as a pronounI should know this, but can you tell me when using le as a pronoun which comes after the preposition 'de' is the rule that it never becomes' Du'?

I incorrectly did that with the following sentence

Mais quand ma meilleure amie Miriam a décidé de le faire

Arizona m ou f ?

puis j'irais en Arizona (from fill in the blanks). As I learned from other sources all US states are masculine but 9: la Californie, la Caroline du Nord, la Caroline du Sud, la Floride, la Géorgie, la Louisiane, la Pennsylvanie, la Virginie, la Virginie occidentale. So, Arizona is not feminine ? So shouldn't it be à l'Arizona?

It would be good to include links to specific vocabulary for the writing

I enjoyed this writing exercise but it could have been better if there were links to the necessary vocabulary. For example the "right size" was difficult to find just using a dictionary to look up words individually and I could not even find a word for sneakers!!
