why not have a multiple choice after the reading exercise. that would make it much more useful and helpful in preparing for delf

I did not understand the differences in how "to take care of" translates into french? 

I was taught that, in addition to "Elle croit que c'est une mauvaise blague," "She (thinks it/ believes it to be) a bad joke" can also be written "Elle croit à une mauvaise blague." A visit to context.reverso seems to bear this out, whereas this lesson says that "que" is always required. Is this lesson perhaps missing a note of exception, or am I misinformed? 

Why is the translation for crois think?  Wouldn’t pense make more sense? Thank you!

And what if I want to say e.g: Clarrisa is a worse/better student than I am.

Clarissa est une plus mauvaise élève que moi/ Clarissa est une pire élève que moi.

Clarrissa est une meilleure élève  que moi.

and for plural:

Clarrisa et Ben sont de plus mauvais/de pires élèves  que moi.

Clarrisa et Ben sont de meilleurs élèves  que moi.

or maybe:

Clarrisa et Ben sont des eleves plus mauvais/des élèves pires que moi.

Clarrisa et Ben sont des élèves meilleurs que moi

I am not sure about the articles here... So is it ok what I wrote ?

I'm being very picky with the punctuation here (but then again the little robot is often very picky about my punctuation, especially in the dictations haha). In the first sentence there should be a comma (and not a full-stop) in between "un petit déjeuner différent" and "ce qui peut rendre les matins un peu compliqués". (The corresponding English sentence did have the comma here.)

I don’t know why my answer wouldn’t be qu’ in this instance, rather than the unshortened que. I’d appreciate guidance.
