I was not able to understand which verb is used in this sentence for the imperative?

Mes parents ont toujours été là pour moi.  Can you help me understand why PC was used and not Imparfait?  To me,  it seems like a statement of actions that were ongoing or repeated in the past over an undefined period.  Merci pour vos conseils !

Hi. Could 'sauf' have been used in "...mais il n'y avait rien d'autre à faire qu'à téléphoner au garage et attendre"?

Also, could 'rien de plus' be used instead of 'rien d'autre' or do they not mean the same thing?

How far in the future are you supposed to use the immediate future, I just got it wrong because it referred to next Tuesday, that doesn't sound very immediate to me?

What is the mood and tense of Qui l'eût cru?

Why is the future perfect used in this sentence: "Mais personne mieux que Claude Nougaro n'aura incarné..."?

Would present tense not work here?

Question: Doing some review before taking an immersion class. To the question: Please translate s'brosser in passe compose "We brushed our hair", I wrote: "Nous nous sommes brosses..." (with the correct accent). Response was that it was nearly correct and should have been "Nous nous sommes brosse". I don't get it. Why would it be singular? Thanks in advance. 

What is wrong with in question 4 answering "seulement" - it sound perfectly idiomatic.
