Preposition a usage

Hola,

In this statement, just wondering why there is the preposition after llamamos?

Después de la fiesta llamamos a un taxi.

I know we have a lesson on prepositions for movement verbs, and guess this comes under the 'purpose' part of that?

Do you have any resources (or planned) to go into this a bit more?

Gracias,

"Lo" instead of "El"?

"En el mundo hay muchos paises interesantes pero para mí, el más interesante es Australia."

My question is, why is could one also say "lo más interesante..." and still be correct? That is, use "lo" instead of "el"?

This is not an English sentence, and why does the second verb take a subjunctive rather than an infinitive form?No creo que ________ todos los deberes para el lunes. I don't believe to have done all my homework by Monday.HINT: Conjugate the yo form of "hacer" in El Pretérito Perfecto Subjuntivo

Madrugar means the same as levantarse temprano?

I don't understand why in one sentence the lady says that she gets up early every morning (me levanto temprano) but in the next sentence she says "no me gusta madrugar".  Are you just showing us that there are two ways to say that she gets up early? Isn't this a bit much for beginner Spanish!?!?

I am confused about “might”. Another test used subjunctive with: What Maria might say is not important. : Lo que María ___ no tiene importante.

Future tense in SpanishI am not trying to be awkward but "Nosotras vamos a salir de copas el viernes próximo" is more or less the same as “Nosotras salimos de copas el viernes próximo” yet the second sentence was marked wrong.

Past perfect or preterite?

Paco ________ una manifestación en la ciudad.  Your answer:  Paco ha visto...Paco saw a demonstration in the city.(HINT: Conjugate “ver” in El Pretérito Perfecto)Why would this sentence use a perfect tense, when the event is clearly finished?Paco ha visto... - Paco has seen...  is very different than Paco saw.
