Last question was quite complex in details (and I don't remember them now exactly) but basically required you to design an interface of read\write functions to a user supplying virtual addresses and you're given several flash blocks with their own read\write\delete interface and limitations to implement this. Last part is to determine complexity of the operations as a function of the flash storage size.
