I am confused about the translation for a section of this exercise. That section is: "I like King Baltazar". For this, I wrote "A mí me gusta al Rey Baltasar", but the corrected answer/translation was presented as "A mí me gusta el rey Baltasar". I thought the preposition "a" needed to be inserted after use of gusta if the reference was to a person (in this case "rey Baltasar" --- lower case in "rey" notwithstanding). Apparently, I am wrong. Could you please explain why "el" and not "al" was correct?

1. why is the answer sentence being phrased as 'the idea attracted me' when the sentence given is I was attracted to the idea?
2. it a esquiar a Europa. why does it uses 'a' instead of 'en'?
3. en Argentina se pueden practica... why is this se pueden in plural and not se puede in singular?
3. drop by is given as dejarse caer por.. can we still use pasar por?
The question did not specify to use the tú or usted form, and in a later question, it did specify "tú." So I typed "leyó", but was marked wrong. I had "leiste" until I saw "tú" specified later, so I changed it. Either both should be right or it should be specified, to reduce frustration. I can see if you were talking to a family member or close friend (in an obvious context), then it should be expected to be "tú." But this was quite ambiguous- you could have loaned a book to a friend or a colleague or boss.
Hello,
Can you give some examples or guidelines on when and what contexts to use different words/phrases for "everywhere". For example, I'm confused when or what contexts to use dondequiera, por todas partes, por todos lados, and doquiere/por doquiere. Thanks very much for clarification.

"Mi amiga Lucía estaba perdida en un desértico" Can we use perderse here and say " Mi amiga Lucía se perdía en un desértico" ?
