0 1 The new house
Read this extract from Le Grand Meaulnes by Alain-Fournier. François is the narrator.
He is describing his house.
À l’école de Sainte-Agathe, mon père était professeur de la classe des grands
enfants. Ma mère faisait la classe des petits. Nous habitions une maison à
trois kilomètres de la gare. Derrière la maison, il y avait deux champs.
Je me souviens de notre première journée dans cette maison. Quand ma mère et
moi y sommes arrivés, j’ai vu des enfants qui prenaient des pêches dans le jardin.
Ils sont vite partis. Dans le salon, ma mère a remarqué avec tristesse qu’il n’y avait
pas assez de place pour nos meubles. Puis, elle m’a envoyé dans la salle de bains
car j’étais sale après le voyage.

0 2 A reality TV show box
You see some reactions to a new reality TV programme. The reactions are online.
Salma
Dix candidats sont envoyés dans une villa en Afrique pour trouver l’amour. Le
programme est interactif, ce qui est génial. Comme beaucoup, j’ai un peu peur que
ces émissions exploitent les participants.
Ilyan
Il est difficile de résister aux endroits ensoleillés et aux paysages exotiques.
Jeanne
J’ai lu que l’émission sera diffusée tous les jours pendant un mois. J’en ai marre de
ce genre de choses.
Clément
Comme de nombreuses émissions anglaises, cette émission est assez vulgaire.
Cela ne m’arrête pas d’attendre avec impatience de voir quel candidat va partir en
rendez-vous avec une autre personne.
What do these people think about the programme?
Write P for a positive opinion.
N for a negative opinion.
P + N for a positive and negative opinion.
