Your spelling of the month in what you say is the correct answer is incorrect. 

why is it J'habite A Paris but J'habite EN France and AUX Etats- unis? what is the difference ?

Wouldn't it be d'endroits magnifiques?

I feel as if the explanation is missing something because it is contradicting the same rules it is proposing, as I doubt it has the wrong answer?

I debated on whether to choose "she takes dance lessons" or "she's dancing." Although "she's dancing" isn't correct, "she takes dance lessons" seems too precise. It seems to me you could dance regularly in a structured way without necessarily taking lessons. For example, if you are a dancer. 

So although "she's dancing" is incorrect, "she dances" (in the sense that she's a dancer) seemed like it might be what you meant in English. "Elle fait de la danse" would work to mean "she takes dance lessons" but does it necessarily refer to lessons? Or can it refer to any regularly scheduled dancing?

Why is the subjonctif présent of "partir" used in the above sentence when the sentence refers to the past tense? It was written in English as "Before they went to live over there". Why is it not "Avant qu'ils ne soient partis s'installer là-bas" ? Can someone please enlighten me? Thank you.

Why t is pronounced in ´en fait ´ ?Thank you 

Hi

Is it acceptable to use future proche for this article.  For example, I think I said 'Je vais rendre visite ... '  rather than 'Je rendrai visite'.  Is the event discussed too far in the future to be able to use the future proche?

Thanks
