Hello. Can you please explain why is le passé composé used in the first sentence?

"Mon frère et moi avons toujours aimé les jeux vidéos."

I thought this should be in l'imparfait because it describes a habit in the past and not something that just happened for a day, no?

This lesson is very confusing.  Wow. I have so many questions,  I don't know where to start!

Why can't we use "vraiment" here for "really"? and why does it contract to "de" ? I know its because of the quantity of "beaucoup" however the expression is "avoir du mal à"?

I entered this (il ferait du soleil) instead of the answer Kwiziq wanted (il ferait beau). Doesn't il ferait du soleil work as well?

At the beginning of the second sentence the word "BASTIEN" is in the text, but it is not in the audio. All of the other sentences have the characters' name in both the text & the audio. 

what's the difference between "emménager" and "déménager"?

To be sure, a romantic image !  I had a little problem with the female voice , which is normal for me because of loss of hearing in the higher frequencies.   That is not a complaint.  Today, I decided to listen again after completing the exercise, this time without translating in my head.  It was slow enough that I could do that with ease.  It seemed like a breakthrough!   I think I will continue with this approach. 

l'homme avec un couteau qui était tapi derrière le fauteuil familier de la femme / the man with a knife who was crouching behind the woman's familiar armchair

An alternative correct answer to the above was "...qui tapissait derrière..."

In that case, shouldn't (my answer) "...qui s'accroupissait derrière...' also be acceptable? 

Aujourd'hui je récolte beaucoup de citrouilles de me jardins.  Presque trente en tout.  Nous avons eu un peu de gel mais demains j'espère récolter le reste du maïs doux pour les geler.  Je suis en accord.  J'adore l'automne!!
