Négation pluriel"We don't eat baby rabbits" -> "Nous ne mangeons pas de lapereau" selon un quiz. Je sais que 'des' devient 'de' dans les phrases négatives, mais pourquoi pas 'lapereaux'?

TranslationI'm reading "seul sur Mars" (originally in English). The protagonist is testing that his equipment can clean air properly: "D’accord, ce n’est pas un vrai test, car je ne suis pas à l’intérieur à consommer de l’oxygène et produire du CO2". If understand this lesson properly, a better translation would be "ce n'est pas un test vrai" ?

dans vs en vs nothingI'm sorry--I get this distinction wrong on every test. Here are three examples from the explanation page. # 3 J'habite la rue Pasteur I live on Pasteur Road # 6 J'habite rue Pasteur. I live on Pasteur Road. # 15 J'habite dans la rue Pasteur I live on Pasteur Road What is the difference?
