I cannot understand at all what the difference is between the phrases below using plaire. It seems to me both are possible but only one is correct according to Kwiziq:

Ce restaurant nous plait vs Ce restaurant plait a nous

Please forgive the lack of accents

Why "Ils sont punis..."?

In the micro quiz, the first question is "Ils sont punis pour avoir sali leur chambre." Why is être used with punir? In the second question, it uses avoir (as I expected). Thanks in advance!

speed of dictation

It would be helpful to have the dictation slower, or at least become slower as one needs to hear it repeatedly

Laisser used in example

Why is laisser included in the following? : -

ATTENTION:
Verbs in -ETTER, -ELLER and -E(xx)ER (errer, blesser, laisser etc.) are not included in this rule: they follow the regular pattern.

Passer can be used with avoir or être...

« Les cloches sont passées ce matin pour apporter les œufs de Pâques » but in the other quizz « Il a passé l’hiver dernier à Chamonix ». In my mind it should be avoir in both sentences.

Compound tenses - including compound future/conditional?

I cannot find specifically in Progress/KwizIQ section a lesson or description of compound tenses but to date all the examples I have seen use Passé Composé, or a couple of examples of Pluperfect as in this lesson. There is an extended review of compound tenses on the Lawless site itself. It would be useful to link to information on all the compound tenses/moods here. Alternatively, at least, include in this and any other compound tense related lessons, a line or two confirming (or otherwise) that the rule discussed is general to all compound tenses and moods.
