I read in the site somewhere that with body parts its always the definite article and not possessive adjective. But here its says ses joues and i think son coeur.
I got the question Mathilde a rentré la voiture avant qu'il ne pleuve. wrong because I chose "Mathilde returned the car..." as the "correct" answer was "Mathilde put away the car..." But in English, saying you put away a car sounds like you put a small object away. Since a car is so big, you would return it to its proper destination, which is why I chose this answer. I feel that both these answers could technically be correct.
My dictionary translated this as 'événement sportif' and did not give 'épreuve' as an option. When I used the same dictionary in reverse by looking up the translation of 'épreuve', the translation was ordeal, test, hardship but not sporting event. Do I need a new dictionary?

Why can’t it be “tu as l’odeur du pain” ?
How do I identify a masculine or feminine noun?
if ‘avoir envie de’ can be used as an alternative to ‘avoir besoin de’ for saying ‘needs to go to the bathroom’, why can’t it also be used for ‘needs to take a day off’? Isn’t it all down to context in both cases?
