My sense is that this is misleading because "if she could fly" is conditional not past continuous. Shouldn't it read "If she flew, she would go to the moon" to avoid confusion?

Thanks, Kalpana

tenses of verbs

in this text it said 'I explained to her', which I would have thought was 'Je lui ai expliqué' but no.

so, when to use (for example)

j'avais expliqué

j'expliquais

Follow up to question by Cher

I'm sorry, but I still don't quite understand the role of "en" in the sentence referred to. Is it a pronoun to refer to 'Les enquêteurs' ?

Elle est for opinion of specific thing, non?

The ce vs. il/elle question is driving me crazy! I've created a detailed flowchart and I still get them wrong. Why is this "C'est"?

Tu aimes l'école? Oui, ________ est très intéressant!

"Elle" is used when expressing an opinion of a specific thing, here, a school. Your own example uses, "Tu aimes mon pull? Oui, il est très beau." How is this any different?????

“Donner mon sang” , ou “donner le sang”?

In the writing exercise, the author gives blood every Saturday. I used “je donne le sang”, but the only correct answer was “je donne mon sang”. I am used to thinking about always using the definite article for parts of the body. Why would this not apply in this situation?

Thank you!
