AQA GCSE French Writing Higher Tier 4H (8658/WH) - 5th June 2023 [Exam Chat]

For an environment question, you could say, “Je veux que les gens fassent plus pour protéger l’environnement / contre le changement climatique.” (I want people to do more to protect the environment / against climate change.)

For a family question, you could say, “Je m’entends bien avec ma famille parce qu’ils me soutiennent quoi que je fasse.” (I get on well with my family because they support me no matter what I do.)

For a past experience, you could say, “Avant que nous partions / avant de partir, mon père voulait que nous prenions des photos.” (Before we left / before leaving, my dad wanted us to take photos.”

You don’t need to use the subjunctive to get 32, but 5 correct tenses (perfect, imperfect, present, conditional and either future tense) with 2 opinions and reasons and a range of grammar points (like “en regardant”, “après avoir fait”, “avoir l’intention de”, “il est essential de”, “ce que j’aime le mieux / le plus” and other things) can help you achieve the same, even if the story you’re telling is quite basic.

Hope this helps!

How did it go, everyone?

for question 2.1, the bullet point "une visite scolaire mémorable" - do they mean someone who has visited your school or does it mean a school trip?

Thank you so much for this. Absolute life saver and I used the second one in my exam

if i put bien que instead of cependant for the translation do you guys think i would still get the mark?

bien que means although, the word was however

Would pourtant be okay?

Would pourtant be okay?

What did people write for the part on the translation that said “we went camping”?

that was gorgeous
