The second time she says "guía" she pronounces it "Este ría".  Is this common, and is there a rule for when to do this?  Thanks.

and consists of a wooden box,

Kwizbot           y está formada por una caja de madera,
You                 y consiste en una caja de madera,

I read the lesson attached to this, but was wondering if the verb "consistar" can ever be used in this context, and if so/or not?

why and how would it be used?

Thank you. 

Kwizbot says the correct answer is "Enciendes tú."  Why does excluding the "tú" make my answer incorrect? 

You make the distinction that todavía can be placed before or after the verb unlike in English, but I think it can be done in English as well. It might be a bit less common (or perhaps more poetic), but I can think of sentences where it could come after the verb still. 

In the quiz question "Es posible que Miguel ________ mucho esta noche." why is it beba and not beberá? Isn't the futuro used to talk about probability? (The given English translation is, "It's possible Miguel will drink a lot tonight.") 

Confession. I always cheat on questions regarding the second person plural because I live in California where I have frequent opportunities to use Spanish and hope to have more both at home and in travels to Central and South America. No disrespect to Spain, but is there any way to alter my tests so they exclude questions which test Spanish as it's spoken in Spain. Thanks.

HI Inma 

I'm not sure why the answer for this is conjugated singular (ha gustado) & not plural (han gustado);

Siempre me ________ leer autobiografías de gente famosa.

Thank you.

This is another quiz where one or more answers are correct is not noted.

I've been taught that this usage of the passive voice is discouraged in English, especially in formal writing, and especially when the active voice is easily possible. Is the same true in Spanish? Thank you!
