Does “¿Dónde estarán?” mean both “where will they be?” and “where might they be?” ?

I would think there would be different ways to express the two different meanings in Spanish.

For the second sentence, you hint to use El Pretérito Indefinido but the right answer is "era" which is El Pretérito Imperfecto. I should have gotten it anyways but just wanted to let you know in case you want to change the hint. 

In a grammar textbook, I ran across the structure "la + de + nombre + que + verbo (+ sujeto) (+ tiempo o lugar)" as an intensifier.  Does this have the same function as "qué de"?

It says that the correct answer is  "QUERÍAMOS".  I don't understand why you don't use "quisimos".  We wanted to help and actually did help, so it is a completed action.

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.
