Bad English translation

There were many experts in the room and I talked to some.

The answer here would be algunos. But it is marked "alguno". That would be in English, "I talked to one (of them).

no deberías nunca salir con ellaThis is a strange example and not covered in the explanation. When is it customary to insert a word between two verbs? When else can this occur?

Is there any way I can go back over tests I have taken as a review. I think I could learn more about sentence structure. Thank you.

Subjunctive clause with same subject?

I thought if the two clauses in a sentence that normally takes the subjunctive both have the same subject, you would use an infinitive form rather than a subjunctive?

In the quiz sentence 'Cuando estés tan agobiado que no puedas relajarte, llámame.', can you explain the structure of this sentence.'Cuando' triggers the subjunctive 'estés', is there a double trigger due to 'Cuando estés tan agobiado que' causing 'no puedas relajarte' where 'puedas' is in the subjunctive or is 'no puedas relajarte' just in the imperative?

Why En and not DeEn quien estas pensada (not sure I remembered the last word correctly).  In English this would be "of whom are you thinking?" so why is the Spanish En quien and not De quien.  (Accents do not appear to work)
