when to use an article with a country

should be  he/she/one has fun then we/people have fun

It would be she has fun or he has fun one has fun.. why is that not shown. Also seems so insane not to use of the verb to have avoir ??? alas just what is. 

It would be so helpful if we could slow down the reading of the test and to repeat a phrase

would 'je peux recharger mes piles' be acceptable?

What is the difference between 'Alors' and 'Puis'

Even though I've read and practiced a lot with them, I still can distinguish which is which, why in this story "Je voulais les garder" but not "J'ai voulu les garder". Please help me!

I am a beginner lever french learner. I have been trying to study a poem by Pierre de Ronsard, 'Quand vous serez bien vielle..'. I have understood the meaning of the rest of the poem but the second quatrain still puzzles me.

Lors, vous n’aurez servante oyant telle nouvelle,
Déjà sous le labeur à demi sommeillant,
Qui au bruit de mon nom ne s’aille réveillant,
Bénissant votre nom de louange immortelle.

I have looked up the meanings of all the individual words and have a rough understanding of the whole but without absolute certainty. I would appreciate if anyone could expound upon this quatrain.
