November 2009 French With Listening

<p>I think I put vrai but I can’t remember the question. Perhaps I put something else, but it was definitely singular (I think lol).</p>

<p>It was vrai. Only thing that made sense. This test was… jeez. The listening sucked. My image quality was fine, though.</p>

<p>Oh, and that three guys question: Les trois gendarmes ont du travail, or sthg along those lines.</p>

<p>Yeah, the images part of listening sucked in particular.</p>

<p>for the gendarme question I said both of them were wearing hats…
because I dunno. The guy in the back didn’t seem like a gendarme. argh</p>

<p>^ yes, the gendarmes question was the answer with “casquettes”, not “travail”</p>

<p>What did you guys say for one for the boy at the interview? Did he find the job in les affiches or le journal?</p>

<p>I said journal but I totally guessed. I missed half of the talking bc I didn’t realize that the questions weren’t really in order of how the conversation went. argh.</p>

<p>and so does anyone know the carousel one? what was the answer to that one?</p>

<p>^ I would like to know that one as well. Was it because the kids feared the carousel horse? It obviously wasn’t the horse race, so that leaves 3 choices…i think.</p>

<p>I really didnt like that test! I am fluent in French and I thought the listening part would be easy, but I couldnt even see what was going on in those pictures! Especially the carousel one…
And the last longer dialogue about the guy going for the interview…I completely missed one of the answers and then I got confused and didn’t hear the rest of the answers… Wow I hope I managed to still do well. Hopefully they have a really generous curve for us this time :)</p>

<p>neuro-hopeful I swear we are the same person! I’m also fluent in french and those two things you mentioned were EXACTLy my problem. Those pictures were AWFUL. Can we complain? And the last dialogue was awful because the questions weren’t in order. Argh</p>

<p>I missed a question there was something like:</p>

<p>Elle vive dans un _______ apartement
bel
beau</p>

<p>was the answer bel ou beau? i put bel because if not they would be two vowels (u de beau and i de immeuble) and they don’t go together… but i’m still not sure… :frowning: help?</p>

<p>Yeah I do want to complain! But what good would it do…? :(</p>

<p>And bel is correct. Appartement is masculine, but you’re right it can’t be beau because the french don’t like consecutive vowels in words :slight_smile: so its bel. </p>

<p>As long as I get above 770, I’ll be happy.
Stupid poor-quality pictures! hahah</p>

<p>How did everyone else do? I did better than I thought :D</p>

<p>I’m thrilled with my SAT II French score.</p>

<p>Lit was an epic fail though.</p>

<p>I didn’t do as well as I’d hoped at all.</p>
