 It says ' Do you prefer to wait sitting or standing' and I had to fill in the gap for prefer/preferir.

 ' Usted prefiere esperar de pie o sentado?' 

I don't understand how prefiere is the answer and not prefieres

'He recommended (to me) investing in the stock market'

I put  'me ha recomendado que invertiera en bolsa'  recomendar + imperfect subjunctive.

This was marked wrong and the only alternatives shown being recomendar + infinitive  'me ha recomendado invertir en bolsa'

Why can't I use the subjunctive here?

Gracias

In this question from a quiz:

"El presidente ________ Gobierno tiene su residencia oficial en el Palacio de la Moncloa, en Madrid"

I was told that it should be del. However, in the lesson it says not to use contractions prior to proper nouns. Is this not a proper noun, despite the fact it is capitalized?
