Since both parts of the sentence refer to a feeling/opinion, shouldn't both parts be conjugated using the imperfect past tense?

"Je ne voulais pas choisir pour elle, mais j'ai été soulagé"

Thanks in advance,

If you wanted to say "You are not going to drive me...", would you say "Tu ne me conduis pas..."?   

'Autres' refers to 'détails', so is an adjective ('détails' being a noun)?

So shouldn't it be 'des autres'?

Bonjour - J’ai remarqué que l'homme de gauche a utilisé le passé simple deux fois (“et ce fut une défaite cuisante” et “notre équipe obtint . . .”).  Est-ce qu’il est courant d'utiliser le passé simple en parlant ?  Est-ce parce qu'il parlait de faits historiques ?  Merci !

Why is "les distances de sécurité" plural here?

i don't understand the translation. why is "she would read" translated to "elle lisait" and not "elle lirait"?

i thought that "would" is conditional verb in english so it should be translated too to conditionnel in french? need any explication

Which is correct. Il fait beau or il y a du soleil?

I was doing an Alevel french translation and encountered this. I could guess the meaning ‘24 free services are offered’ but I don’t get why the word order is like this.
