What do you do in the case of "il faut que" such as "Il faut que j'aille faire les courses." On second reference, you wouldn't say, "il le faut?" Could you say "" Il faut que j'y aille" or "Je le dois?" Or, does this "le" rule not apply to Il faut que? Scrambled here!:)

More problems getting on the horse

Did a quiz, apparently answered wrong, and am now very confused.

The question: Elle ________ monté le poney de Jérémie et il a été très docile.

I went with "a monté". The quiz says the correct is "est monté".

Going by the Q&A, it seems like my answer was correct. I am stumped in two ways.

First, the Q&A says that avoir followed by the past participle is used for getting on a horse. This is a (pro)noun followed by a direct object. The lesson uses the example a "a monté mon cheval". I'm struggling to see why the verb auxiliary would switch based on who owns the horse.
Second, assuming I have the first part wrong someone how and être is the correct auxiliary, should the correct answer not be "est montée"? The subject is feminine.

The term shy. The dictionary suggests “farouche” for animals, yet here “timide” is used. Is this because C is a pet and a more personal shy applies ?

"il m'emmène avec lui"The final statement of the story is completely in present tense. In U.S. English, the phrase after the comma would be either futur simple or futur proche. (I don't know if U.S. English has "near future" and "simple future".) I am sure I already know the answer, but do the French really keep it in present tense? Is it incorrect to say "il m'emmenerai avec lui" or "il va m'emmener avec lui"? Merci beaucoup.

Layout Problem

When I did my quiz, with 'Ben _______ son train presque tous les jours.', the answer box was a drop-down question. When I got my results, this question was Almost There. The answer showed two different answers! If a question is drop-down, you can't select two answers at once, can you?

Very Confused

Lesson: Nous trouvons que vous ....... trop de bruit. We think you make too much noise. I used the subjonctif of fassiez and you say it’s faites which doesn’t seem to be subjonctif. This notebook lesson doesn’t help with my issue. What do I have wrong? Thanks for your help.
