Why is "Ellos propusieron cambiar la ruta del viaje." wrong?

Why is "Propusieron cambiar la ruta del viaje." the only right answer?

I used comenzar for start but it was corrected to empezar. What is the difference in the usage of the two verbs?

While working in a Spanish-speaking school, the kids would say, "Se puede entrar?" to ask if they could enter the class room. The teacher would respond by saying, "Sí, se puede." Why would they use this form? It's like saying, "Can one enter the room?" Is it actually a passive question instead?

Why is está bien correct when  it is a permanent condition - shouldn't it be only es buena. 

Hello, in this example linked to the lesson : So my question is when is it antes de and when is it antes que ? Is antes de only for temporal subjects (antes de la cena...) ? And is there also después que ? Thank you.

No es justo que vosotros antes que nosotros. (It's not fair that you'll die before us.) HINT: Conjugate "morir" in El Presente de Subjuntivo.

Hola,

We have porque, que and como in this construction - and we know that por can mean 'because of' - can it also be used as a causal conjunction in this sense?

Gracias,

Listening and understanding is certainly my weakest point in learning Spanish. Although my initial Kviziq test placed me in category C1, I know that I am not really at that level in all respects. Thus, these B2 (and even some B1) exercises are proving useful - Many Thanks ! … (The fact that I managed to notice that [in your sentence: ... Dalí y su "Muchacha en la ventana"] "mujer" was accidentally spoken in place of "muchacha", must mean that I am making some progress).
