Hi, my understanding was that "un poco" was always used when poco was used as a pronoun, instead of as an adjective or adverb along with the explicit noun?
Ex: Quieres arroz? Si, un poco (de arroz).
Ex: Solo quiero poco arroz.
Ex: Necisito estudiar poco.
Is this not correct?
Thanks!!

Experimenté una mezcla de repulsión y compasión por el protagonista, cuyas acciones estremecedoras se entrelazan con la dura realidad de la España rural.
My dictionary seems to indicate that actos would be more appropriate here as it translates as 'deeds'. I'm not clear about the difference.
Gracias
I thought gustar was modified by the thing being liked (vs the person/people doing the liking), but when I chose gustan for liking the horse races I was marked wrong.
I think the translation should be three thirty no half three.
Luna, Mar y tú dormiren un hotel de lujo.
Luna, Mar and you preferred to sleep in aluxury hotel.
(HINT: Conjugate the "ustedes" form of "preferir" in El Pretérito Indefinido)
x prefirieron
preferieron
kwiziq says prefirieron is incorrect and that it should be preferieron, but the lesson and internet says otherwise.
'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
"Tu coche no es muy nuevo aunque funcione/funciona estupendamente. (Your car is not very new although it works beautifully.)"
I chose the subjunctive "funcione" here because both the speaker and the listener would know about the car. But this was marked wrong. Why would the indicative be correct?
PS I just read your answer below that the speaker is simply making a declaration. In that case, how do we distinguish this from the case of the speaker stating shared information? It seems that both answers could be correct depending on how one interprets the speaker. This makes it hard to know which answer the system considers to be correct.
