Why can't I say "Nous faisons du progrès."  Do I have to say "des progrès"?

Is there a list of all of the adjectives that go before the noun?  I feel like there is a list somewhere that I am missing.

I am puzzled by "tout oppose le" in the following announcement.

À l’occasion des élections européennes, le 26 mai, deux philosophes sont têtes de liste. De l’accueil des réfugiés à la gestation pour autrui (GPA), tout oppose le Français François-Xavier Bellamy et le Belge Laurent de Sutter qui se lancent en politique sans rien renier de leurs convictions métaphysiques.

The first sentence is clear. The second sentence mentions (1) the questions of the refugees and surrogacy, and (2) Bellamy and de Sutter who are entering politics, etc. But I do not understand how "tout oppose le" links (1) and (2). Does it mean Bellamy and de Sutter are opposed to (1)? If so, what is the "le" doing there? I can't work out the meaning here. Any help would be much appreciated.

Why does the quiz mark my answer wrong when i choose: j'ai donné mon ordinateur ancien à la associe....it says correct option is '...mon ancien ordinateur...' but wouldn't that mean 'the last/previous computer that i owned' as per the rule described ?

Is this an exception as in French there are so many exceptions to a rule :( ? 

Or is it a mistake in the quiz ? Please clarify . Thanks

What is the meaning of the ‘t’ in the phrase ‘ouvre-t-on’?

In the mini quiz after the lesson on Du, I translated this sentence as “Julie wants some chocolate”. The lesson on “du” clearly stated this to mean “some”. Why was I marked as not correct? The answer was given as “Julie wants chocolate”. If this translation is the preferred one why is it not taught in the relevant lesson? 

Thought espérer does not take subjuntive.
