It appears you have so many more prompts with “no... todavía” than with “todavía no.” Does that mean in real life “no... todavía” is more common? Most people use it?
A grammer question:
I have been a member of- he sido miembro del...
Why there is no uno like in English - he sido uno miembro (this sentence is a mistake).
As if Spanish doesn’t involve enough ambiguous distinctions (par vs. para, ser vs. estar, pretérito indefinido vs imperfecto, etc., etc.). Does this issue (perfecto vs. I defy) pertain to Spanish usage outside of Spain? Spoken as well as written Spanish? Me vuelve loco. Español es como una mujer ambigua, seductora, y mandona .

Ah, me encantaba jugar este juego cuando era una niña!

In the last section of the translation, "between the practical, incredulity and mysticism" is translated as "entre lo práctico, la incredulidad y el misticismo." I don't understand why the práctico gets lo as it's article (other than because the hint said so). Can you explain, please. Thanks
Dying one's hair is something which maybe be done oneself or by professionals. Am I to understand that the construction of a sentence about hair dye is the same regardless of whether one does it to oneself or has it done by professionals? Are we left to infer which is the case based on how good the resultant hair looks?
I suppose this is similar in English wherein someone might observe "you cut your hair" as readily as "you got a haircut" but with rare exceptions (thinking of my brother circa age 4) intend to imply even in the first case that you yourself cut your own hair.
