You mean I can use "dorme de tarde" and still convey the "sleeps in the afternoon" meaning?

Okay. I didn't know if "por" could be used in the same way here as it is used in Spanish, where someone might say "por la tarde" for in/through the afternoon.

"às tardes" is not accepted even though in a similar exercise it was. In both cases, a behaviour was expressed, i.e. someone generally sleeps at that time of day.
Às vezes, Duo está difícil de entender.

No, this is not grammatical afaik. You could say secretaria minha, but that would mean "secretary of mine" which is also a bit weird
