OPINION OF TOWN

PROS AND CONS OF PILOT
1. Advantage: The landscape

2. Advantage: Free time
Disadvantage: Working hours

MOVIE ADVERT
1. Romantic
2. Comedy

PREPARING FOR AN EXAM
1.[go for a walk to...] Reflect
2. [You should listen to music especially if...] you have trouble sleeping. (I agree... but unfortunately didn't put this :frown: )
3. Eat a well-balanced diet (same goes here, I wrote eat regularly, but doubt this will get the mark.)

GISELLE QUESTION agreed, on all
1. Hunting
2. Climate (may have been Habitat, I put Habitat)
3. Lack of Food
4. Predators

QUESTION ON THE ORANGE BADGE?
1. check traffic before leaving
2. (Advantages): Saves time because you don't have to wait at the barriers and don't have to pay at barriers (not sure, just what I heard and based off of experience in France)

SELFIE QUESTIONS
1. She takes pictures of her new haircut (this is what I actually put, just remembered aha) + doesn't always like her friends selfies
2. Good background (dog was mentioned but I believe they said you don't want your dog getting in the way, not sure, my class are currently debating aha, they also think something was mentioned about smiling or serious expression.)
(edited 7 years ago)
For the selfie question I think the first bit was A (can't remember what A was though...) and the one about background, as she said something along the lines of "ranger" which is to tidy

I don't think it's the smile or serious expression ones, as she said it's important to smile (rather than it's unnatural to smile) and she didn't like serious expressions

EDIT: for the first question the last disadvantage is that it's hard to find housing/an apartment

I think the 1st selfie question was "she takes pictures of her hair" and "she doesn't always like her friends' selfies", and the second one was "she wears little makeup" and "find a good background"

Nope, there is 90 ums for speaking, 90 for writing, 60 for listening and 60 for reading.
For the last written question about preparing for your exams, I think I remember it saying 'pay attention to what you eat' as well as 'eat a well-balanced diet'

ah okay thankyou!! my coursework is 113/120 so fingers crossed i can get enough for 160/200 and bag an A
I generally feel bad about this exam...:frown: does anyone know the ums required for an A in french? My coursework is 322/360 and so A* in both speaking and As in both writing so what would I need in the exams? ANY help would be cool :smile:
