The clue was in the hint = 'which' refers to 'le territoire".

Is it possible to use "grâce à quoi" without this clue ? I didn't pay attention to the clue below the sentence and my 1st thought (and the answer as well) was "grâce à quoi". I wonder if it also makes a sense here ?

How does one conjugate a verb when this occurs? Do you conjugate the verb with its form with the subject or of the object?

Is there a way to possibly include more nationalities

Salut

On dit " parlez-leur" Pourquoi pas "appellez-les" ? 

Merci

In the first sentence, "la tempête [...] a frappé notre village à Noël," why do we use "à" here? Can you say, "la tempête a frappé le Noël"? Is "à" used with all holidays, e.g., "la tempête a frappé à Paques," etc.?

I knew that in inverted questions you use the subjunctive after verbs like 'Pensez-vous...'  If you start the question however with 'Est-ce que vous pensez...?' does that rule about the subjunctive not apply?  I ask because I had put 'Est-ce que vous pensez que ce soit un problème structurel' and this was marked with a correction to '.......c'est' instead of 'ce soit'

Please help for the following : 

What are the differences between these two sentences

1) Il habite à dix minutes de Marseille. 

2) Il habite à 10 min de Marseille. 

My answer was the number one, but the Kwiziq marked it wrong. 

Thank you!
