why the passe simple?

Why do you use the passe simple here (tu agis for 'you were acting') instead of "tu as agi" or "tu agissais" ?

à plusieurs reprises instead of plusieurs fois ?

"à plusieurs reprises" was not permitted for "several times", is it an incorrect answer in this context ?

Thanks

Paul.

Les filles auxquelles je pense sont géniales

Why is this correct? Isn't "quel, quelle etc." only for things? and while Les filles à qui je pense sont géniales is correct is there a difference in meaning between the two?

Pronunciation of "tous" in "Nous mourons tous un jour"

In the audio file for the sentence "Nous mourons tous un jour" in this lesson, the word "tous" has a silent s (IPA [tu]). Why is this? I understood that when "tous" is used as an indefinite pronoun to refer to a group of people like this, the s should be pronounced (IPA [tus]). Have I misunderstood something here? I would appreciate any help on this :)

Pronounce final "s" in exprès or not

It could be due to my own hearing problems but I think I hear the final "s" on exprès pronounced in some examples and others not. Would you please clarify, is final "s" pronounced or not? thanks!

What happened to the rules for "ant" and "ent"?

In a quiz just taken, in making an adverb from "courant", courammant was marked wrong and couramment was correct. Is courant just different?
