Another verb + preposition question.  Why is it "rester à les regarder" instead of "rester pour les regarder"?

I'm confused about this. Aren't they the same thing?

How do we know where to place adverb correctly in sentences like below? 

"Mais on aime tous les deux BEAUCOUP le train fantôme," instead of "Mais on aime BEAUCOUP tous les deux le train fantôme."

Nicole, I do not see a ‘vocabulary themes’ tab. Where is that?

Hi, I have just finished a B2 writing challenge where

'Had you ever had news of Tatania' was translated as

- Et ça t'arrive d'avoir des nouvelles de Tatiana ? 

I cannot understand the sentence structure, and I cannot find an explanation of 'arriver de' on the site.  Can you point me to the relevant grammar.

Thanks

On a recent quiz - "Nous quittons Londres." - was marked correct, while, "Nous quittons de Londres."  Was marked incorrect.  -- While the lesson was clear as to why "Nous partons de Londres" was the only correct answer, it was unclear on the distinction for the verb quitter.  When I read other grammatically correct phrases as " Il a quitté de son plein gré." & "Il a quitté de son poste," where quitter is used as a direct transitive verb I get more confused.   What makes the only correct usage in this case -- "Nous quittons Londres" - indirect??  

Merci beaucoup!
