Why is my answer wrong, I have used desde but the tense is marked wrong

I've  =    I have

so why not present perfect?

In the first  example above viz. A   el no imporatba lo que hubiera dicho

it reads as if I really had said something and if so, why not indicative?

After explaining the whole story (which happened "hoy") with preterito perfecto , why did we use  Preterio Indefinido in the end? 

: el profesor me felicitó.

I thought it would have been "me ha felicitado"

That sentence "yo huelo siempre bien" translates to I always smell good.

"huelo" in this sense means for the subject to have a scent, not like "I always smell something good"

The sentence "nosotros olemos las rosas del jardín" translates to we smell the roses in the garden.

in this sense, "olemos" means to physically perceive a smell

So it has two meanings kind of like how it does in English, am I understanding this right?

For the quiz question: "Mira a ese chico, ¡qué bueno está!

having both 

" Look at that guy! He is hot!"

and

" Look at that guy! He is cute!"

as possible answers is confusing. In American English at least, there can be a great deal of overlap between hot and cute in terms of indicating sexual attractiveness. (Cute can also be applied to, say, a puppy whereas it's unlikely you would say a puppy was hot unless you meant it quite literally. It's debatable whether a cute puppy could grow into a hot dog.) 

Hi, just a small error. Both examples are the same.

Here, we could have used the preposition "a"with the same intention:

Although the note on the question suggests the imperfect of Poder I think the translation should use the conditional, Podría rather than podía

one of the options was: quitarle importancia a los prooblemas. I can't undertand the le. Why not les, in order to correspond with the los problemas?

Muchas gracias !
