Here are some that I’ve found;

"Rester“

To stay: Je vais rester à la maison avec toi aujourd’hui - I am going to stay home with you today

To remain for a while: Ton coup de soleil va rester quelques jours - Your sunburn will remain for a few days

What is left: Il va rester assez pour demain - We are going to have enough left for tomorrow

One still has to: Il me reste à dire au revoir - I still have to say goodbye (i.e. and then I’ll be completely done)

Nevertheless: Il reste qu’ils vont partir plus tôt que prévu - Nevertheless, they are going to leave earlier than planned

EDIT: just remembered in case you feel like torturing yourself you can do Victorian year 12 level French exams 2001 to 2020 for free on the VCE website with the audio and answers available. It would probably be more helpful to not do it within the time limit and listen to the audio as much as you need to. You might also find the HSC exam papers useful from what I can see there's three different levels of French exams (beginners, continuers, and advanced) just find them in the list of subjects and you'll get to the exams.
