Subjunctive/indicative

I used 'cuando suene la alarma' and was corrected to 'cuando suena la alarma'. I notice that an alternative could be 'cuando suene el despertador' so would my original translation, using the subjunctive with 'la alarma', be ok to use?

Many thanks

Singular / plural ?

Here you have: la mitad de los alumnos fueron al viaje.

Half the students went on the trip.
But also you gave la mitad de los jóvenes salió de la ciudad

Can we drop en? Would it be correct?

Can we also drop para from: nada dura para toda la vida?

En not a

In one of the mini quiz questions the answer options gave en not a as the chosen preposition: never have I gone to Paris (it said en Paris, not a Paris). We can use either and they'd be right?

Amable gracias,

Sorry. Didn't finish the question! So what I call the preterito, you call the preterito indefinito? And imperfecto de indicative, you call pret.im
