why "la semaine prochaine" but "ta prochaine soirée costumée? (why not "ta soirée costumée prochaine"?)

I saw this translation in one of my exercises

Je tiens à ces boucles d'oreille comme à la prunelle de mes yeux.I love these earrings dearly.
Why wouldn't it be someting like "J'adore tellement ces boucles d'oreille?" 
I don't understand the verb tenir in this context

Bonjour! Mon frère est arrivé ________ chez le dentiste ce matin !

My brother arrived late at the dentist's this morning!

In the quiz, the correct answer was "en retard", while "tard" was marked as wrong. May I know why "tard" cannot be used in this sentence?

I'm assuming this is a contextual/nuance difference, but if someone could clarify why one is used here over the other, I'd be very grateful!

Enfin, je me fixerai des objectifs pour la journée

Merci!

In the Quiz, "She'll be back in five."

Why is Elle revient dans cinq minutes, chosen over as the correct response and not "Elle va revenir dans cinq minutes"?

How do one differentiate when to use Le Present vs Le Futur Proche (aller + infinitive)?

Qu'est-ce qu'on sort ? 

I was marked wrong for this expression in the Quiz.
The correct answer was simply "On sort?"

Qu'est-ce qu'on sort ?

Why the imperfect for Sophie and Grandma, but the perfect tense for the parents ?
