"ses" bougies (in the written text) où "les" bougies (in the recording)??

C'est une histoire très intéressant, spécialement le fait que l'Assomption était la Fête Nationale de France en autre époque.

why passé composé is used here instead of present tense?

In an example: Ma mère m'a acheté une robe ________. 

Can't you use either nouvelle or neuve?

As I'm pretty sure they both mean favourite - does it matter on the context?

My understanding is that you use dans when referring to a specific place (which is preceded by an article) while en is used to refer to a more general, abstract or symbolic place (no article). 

Je suis dans la classe. vs Il est en classe.

I’m in the classroom. vs He is in class.

But then the following example is given that confuses me:

Je vais en ville - I’m going TO town. Why is it not written using “à?”

Thank you for any help!

Can it ever be “ Toute ce qui/que”

Feminine? or is it a fixed expression?

Hi, why is it “avec mon amie, Annie”? 

Annie is a woman, so shouldn’t it be “avec ma amie, Annie”?
