Qui at the end...For answer to "She sees Paul. -Whom does she see? : Elle voit Paul. -___?", I wrote "Elle voit qui?" as it was marked as "nearly correct." According to the lesson, it indicates that both "Qui est-ce qu'elle voit?" and "Elle voit qui?" are equivalent. So why was "Elle voit qui?" marked as only partially correct? Thanks!

brûla pendant huit jours. = burned for eight days.L'huile, qui ne devait brûler qu'un jour, brûla pendant huit jours.The oil, which was supposed to burn only one day, burned for eight days.I have a question in one of the quiz of this lesson, I don't have problem with the use of qui. I just want to know what tense 'brûla' is in. It isn't passe compose nor imperfect. I can't figure out what tense it is.
