I don't know about the answer of Task#2

using_input.py 
favorite_color=input("What is your favorite color?  ")
favorite_color="Red"
print("The color",favorite_color,"is a great color!")

The first line sets "favorite_color" based on the input, which is what the instructions asked for.
You don't need the second line which is setting it again to a fixed value.
