There are two errors in (1): "training's" and "can". (There are also two spacing errors, but I'm guessing these are transcription typos.)

I think your answer to (2) must be correct, but I find the question somewhat unsatisfactory because "stopped by" is not incorrect in itself. What is incorrect is "stopped by to".
