Hi, why does “the que before the penser” (b) & (c) become “a quoi after the penser” (a)?

(a) “Et vous, vous pensez QUOI des selfies ?”

(b) “Et vous, QUE pensez-vous des selfies ?”

(c) “Et vous, QU'est-ce que vous pensez des selfies ?”

puis j'irais en Arizona (from fill in the blanks). As I learned from other sources all US states are masculine but 9: la Californie, la Caroline du Nord, la Caroline du Sud, la Floride, la Géorgie, la Louisiane, la Pennsylvanie, la Virginie, la Virginie occidentale. So, Arizona is not feminine ? So shouldn't it be à l'Arizona?   

Hi, I really enjoyed this exercise but want clarification on the sentence "Elle était en larmes !"

I would assume that this action was a one-off, not a continual state, so I used the passé compose (Elle a été). 

Is it because the sentences prior all used the imparfait?

Thanks

There is an extra word after 'et je m'ennuie' in the audio, I cannot figure out what it is. 

je choisis.. un lieu nouveau AND ... un nouveau lieu also correct? how come? is it correct to place nouveau after or before the noun? 

As per the lesson, it should be  "M. Dupont et Mme Vichy vous allés au bureau."  right? why is written vont ?

thanks in advance for the help

When referring to a single person of unknown gender, is it correct to use le/la leur, or is that a situation where theirs should be translated as le sien/la sienne?

E.g Would "Someone has forgotten their wallet.  Don't take it!  It's theirs." translate to "Quelqu'un a oublié leur portefeuille.  Ne le prends pas!  C'est le leur."  ou "Quelqu'un a oublié son portefeuille.  Ne le prends pas!  C'est le sien." 

Bonjour,

Can you please explain why our house would use the nous pronoun instead of the possesive on of notres, as the house belongs to us?

Merci
