In the exercise the phrase 'Haciendo la compra a mis mayores' is used. I would have expected 'para mis mayores'. Is the use of 'a' instead a common Spanish usage?
Andando, que os retrasáis.
Hola, a better english version would be: Come on, because you are behind.

"Los países en la cumbre presentaron sus propuestas ________ las catástrofes naturales."
In this question, the correct answer is ante. Could "frente a" be another option here?
"Los países en la cumbre presentaron sus propuestas frente a las catástrofes naturales."
Also, could you either add a section about frente to this lesson or create a lesson about frente?
Hello,
Still a bit confused on passive SE, and have a couple questions: (1) Do "no fault", "accidental" and "passive" SE all refer to the same thing? And (2) Would the correct Spanish translation for "Yesterday I fixed his computer, and he has already broken it" be "Ayer le arreglé la computadora (el ordenador) y ya se lo/le ha roto”. If correct, should I use “lo” (for “it”, the computer) or “le” as indirect object for “to him” (?). Thank you for your input and clarification.
In the example above (Es septiembre y hace calor todavía.), todavía is placed at the end of the sentence and not before/after the verb. Is it a less common (spoken) sentence structure?
I thought this would have used "pudo" because is said last night so we know that outcome from last night
