Présent ou Passé

Hi there! Wondering if you could explain why sometimes "have been + verb" is in the present and sometimes the passé?

E.g. "... l"alsace est multilingue..." (Alsace has been multilingual...) vs. "l'Alsace a gardé son multilinguisme" (Alsace has kept it's multilingualism)

Merci d'avance!

“MUM/MOM: Quentin, did you bring your blankie [safety blanket]?”We would call this a comfort blanket, or perhaps a security blanket, but not a safety blanket.

negation of "vous vous êtes réveillé" (quiz problem, lacks "s")

In one of the quiz questions, we are asked to negate "vous vous êtes réveillé". But isn't that a mistake? Shouldn't it be "vous vous êtes réveillés"? And therefore the negation would be "vous ne vous êtes pas réveillés"?
