explore the French speaking world via the Internet. In this first web
exercise you will visit
Paris Match, a French magazine similar to People or Life.
Click on Paris Match
and look at the cover photo of the current issue. Is a person featured? If so,
identify him or her by answering the following questions:
Qui est-ce?
- Qui est-ce?
- Comment s'appelle-t-il/elle?
- Qu'est-ce qu'il/elle fait?
- Il/elle est d'où?
Et aujourd'hui ...
- What articles are featured in the current issue?
- Click on each title to access the article and accompanying photo.
- How many cognates (words that look alike in English or French) do you recognize in the title?
- Does the photo help you guess the meaning of any unfamiliar words?
- Now read the title again. Do you have a better idea of what it's about?
- Note at least two items that you find interesting to answer the question, "What is happening in France today?"
