When would one use "le trafic" and when "la circulation"?

"Je vais commonder des pates" is given as the correct answer.  Des is used with countable nouns.  Pasta is countable??  I suppose in theory it is, but in practice it is not.

"Plonk" in english means an "ordinary, cheap, possibly inferior" wine. It does not mean bad wine. Does "la piquette" mean bad, or inferior, or both ??

I found that the sound quality on this recording was really terrible, there's an echo that made it really difficult to make out what the speaker was saying, so I abandoned it.

Currently, I am doing a part time job.

I was interested in this use of "fameuse", does it have a hint of "infamous" here, rather than meaning "famous" ?

 (I know fameux or fameuse can mean famous or celebrated in the context of food.)

Can you explain when to choose toi in place of tu?

1.       Ses déclarations étranges auront déconcerté le public.

how to write this in passive form?

The following sentence has the verb following 'que'. Is this OK?  

C'est ainsi que se termine cette histoire.That's how this story ends.
Shouldn't it be:C'est ainsi que cette histoire se termine.

For "And I've worked in the same town...", I put "J'ai travaillé dans the la même ville..." but the correct answer is given as "Et je travaille dans la même ville...".

Why is the present conjugation of travailler used instead of the compound tense?
