JAMB UTME - French - 2024

For each question, choose from the options lettered A- E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.Le pere parle aux enfants Il ...... parle.

Answer Details

In this sentence, we are working with a French construction where the father ("Le père") is talking to the children ("aux enfants"). The verb "parle" means "talks" or "speaks." We need to replace "aux enfants" which means "to the children" with an appropriate pronoun.

In French, when you want to replace plural indirect objects (in this case, "to the children"), the correct pronoun to use is **"leur"**. "Leur" is an indirect object pronoun for "them" when referring to more than one person.

Let's break it down further:

• **"En"**: This means "of it/of them" and is generally not used for people.
• **"Le"**: This is a direct object pronoun meaning "him" or "it" referring to masculine singular objects, not suitable for plural indirect objects.
• **"La"**: This is a direct object pronoun meaning "her" or "it" referring to feminine singular objects, also not suitable for plural indirect objects.
• **"Leur"**: This is the correct indirect object pronoun for "to them" and is used for plural nouns referring to people.

Therefore, the completed sentence should be: "Le père parle aux enfants. Il leur parle."

For each question, choose from the options lettered A - E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.Vous avez des enfants? Oui. J'/je...... ai deux.

Answer Details

In French, the sentence "Vous avez des enfants? Oui. J'/je...... ai deux." translates to "Do you have children? Yes. I have two." The blank must be filled with a correct pronoun that is used to replace "des enfants" (some children) in the given context.

Let's analyze the possible options:

• "les": This pronoun is used to replace a plural noun that has already been mentioned and is specific. However, "les" is not suitable here because it would mean that the speaker is referring to a specific group of children already known.
• "en": This is a pronoun that is used to replace a noun phrase introduced by "de" and its article, such as "des" (some). It is perfect for general references. "En" can mean "of them" or "some" in English.
• "le": This is a singular masculine pronoun which would not fit because we are talking about "enfants" (children), which is plural.
• "la": This is a singular feminine pronoun, unsuitable for "enfants," which is a masculine plural noun.

The most appropriate option to complete the sentence is "en". It is the only pronoun that replaces "des enfants" efficiently by conveying "some" or "of them." Hence, the sentence would be, "J'en ai deux," which means "I have two (of them)." This construction is widely used in French when referring to quantities of something previously mentioned.

Au Nigéria, la plupart des pècheurs (vivre) au bord des fleuves.

Answer Details

In the given sentence, "Au Nigéria, la plupart des pécheurs (vivre) au bord des fleuves," we need to choose the correct form of the verb "vivre" (to live) to complete the sentence. The subject here is "la plupart des pêcheurs," which translates to "most of the fishermen." This subject indicates that we are dealing with a plural form, since "most of the fishermen" refers to more than one person. Therefore, we must choose the verb form that matches a plural subject.

In French, the verb "vivre" is conjugated as follows:

• je vis (I live)
• tu vis (you live)
• il/elle/on vit (he/she/one lives)
• nous vivons (we live)
• vous vivez (you all live)
• ils/elles vivent (they live)

Given that "la plupart des pêcheurs" is plural, the correct conjugation for "vivre" in this context is "vivent."

Thus, the completed sentence is: "Au Nigéria, la plupart des pécheurs vivent au bord des fleuves."

Elles achètent un cadeau_leur père.

Answer Details

In the sentence "Elles achètent un cadeau_leur père," we need to choose the correct preposition that fits into the blank. The sentence translates to "They are buying a present_for their father." The key is to look for a preposition that appropriately indicates the recipient of the gift.

The French word "pour" is used to indicate the purpose or the recipient of an action. In this context, buying a gift for someone means they are the intended recipient. Therefore, the correct preposition to use is "pour."

So, the completed sentence is: "Elles achètent un cadeau pour leur père."

To understand why the other options do not fit:

• "parmi" means "amongst," and it would not indicate the recipient of the gift.
• "dans" means "in," which refers to location and not a recipient.
• "entre" means "between," and indicates something in relation to two entities, not a recipient.

Thus, the only preposition that fits the meaning of buying a gift for someone is "pour."

For each question, choose from the options lettered A- E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.
Maman revient de la ville? Qu..... en revient.

Answer Details

The given sentence is in French, and it translates to: "Is Maman coming back from the city? Who is coming back?" The phrase "Qu..... en revient" is asking for the pronoun that refers back to "Maman" in this context. Here is the breakdown:

1. **Maman** is a feminine singular noun in French, referring to a person, specifically "Mom" or "Mother." The pronoun used should match the gender and number of "Maman".

2. **Elle** is the correct choice because "elle" is a singular feminine pronoun in French, which means "she" in English. This appropriately refers back to "Maman."

3. The other options do not appropriately match the criteria:

• Ils is a plural masculine pronoun, meaning "they" in English. It doesn't fit here because "Maman" is singular and feminine.
• Oil is not any recognized French pronoun.
• Nous is a plural pronoun, meaning "we" in English, and does not match the singular reference.

Therefore, the sentence should be completed as "Quelle en revient?" where "elle" appropriately refers to "Maman." The correct completion is with the pronoun **elle**.

For each question, choose from the options lettered A- E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.C'est la saison sèche, le soleil brille........les jours.

Answer Details

To determine the correct word to use in this sentence, we need to understand the French grammatical concept of agreement. In French, adjectives and pronouns must agree in gender (masculine or feminine) and number (singular or plural) with the nouns they refer to.

The noun "jours" is **plural** and **masculine**. In French, the word "jours" means "days". Therefore, we need a pronoun or adjective that matches both the plural and masculine form.

Let's examine each option:

• **Toute**: Feminine singular, not suitable as "jours" is masculine plural.
• **Tout**: Masculine singular, not suitable as "jours" is plural.
• **Toutes**: Feminine plural, not suitable as "jours" is masculine.
• **Tous**: Masculine plural, this is the correct form for "jours".

Therefore, the sentence should be completed as: "C'est la saison sèche, le soleil brille tous les jours."

L'endroit où 'on peut acheter des médicaments est un/u................

Answer Details

The phrase in French "L'endroit où l'on peut acheter des médicaments" translates to "The place where one can buy medicines" in English. Out of the options given, the correct place to buy medications is a pharmacie.

Let me explain further:

• Banque: This is the French word for "bank." A bank is a place where people go to manage their money, such as depositing savings or taking out loans. It is not where you buy medications.
• Hôpital: In French, this means "hospital." Hospitals are healthcare facilities where patients receive medical treatment, but they are generally not where you purchase medications directly. You might receive medication as part of treatment, but they are administered rather than sold in the traditional sense.
• Pharmacie: This translates to "pharmacy" in English. A pharmacy is specifically the place you go to purchase medications. Pharmacists are trained professionals who can provide both prescription and over-the-counter medications to customers.
• École: This is the French word for "school." Schools are educational institutions, and they do not sell medications.

In sum, if you are looking to buy medications, a pharmacie is the right place to go.

or each question, choose from the options lettered A - E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.Où sont mes lunettes? Tu posées sur la table.

Answer Details

In this French sentence, "Où sont mes lunettes? Tu ________ posées sur la table?", we are required to fill in the blank with the appropriate article. To do so, we need to understand how French articles agree with the noun they accompany.

The word "lunettes" is the subject here. In French, "lunettes" is a plural noun meaning "glasses" in English. It is always used in the plural form, even though it refers to a single item, much like the word "pants" in English. In this context, we're looking for an article that can connect with a plural noun.

In French, articles have to agree both in gender and number (i.e., singular/plural) with the noun they accompany:

• "le" is the masculine singular article for nouns.
• "la" is the feminine singular article for nouns.
• "l'" is used before singular nouns starting with a vowel sound, regardless of gender.
• "les" is the plural article for all nouns, whether masculine or feminine.

Since "lunettes" is plural, the correct article to use is "les". Therefore, the completed sentence should be: "Où sont mes lunettes? Tu les as posées sur la table?"

So, the correct article for the blank is "les".

Choisissez l'option justeComment faut-il saluer ton ami quand te donne un cadeau?

Answer Details

When someone gives you a gift, the most appropriate way to acknowledge their gesture is by expressing gratitude. The phrase that reflects this sentiment is "Merci beaucoup", which translates to "Thank you very much" in English. Expressing gratitude is a polite and universal way to acknowledge kindness and show appreciation. The other options such as "Bonne journée" (Have a good day), "Bonne chance" (Good luck), and "Bon appétit" (Enjoy your meal) are used in different contexts that do not apply to the situation of receiving a gift.

Choisissez l'option juste Dans la chambre, on se couche sur l'/la/le.

Answer Details

In French, the phrase "Dans la chambre, on se couche sur" translates to "In the bedroom, one lies down on." In this context, we are looking for the item you would typically lie down on in a bedroom.

Let's consider each option:

• Lit: This is the French word for "bed", which is the object we usually lie down on to sleep or rest. Therefore, it makes sense to choose "lit" in this context.
• Armoire: This is a word for a "wardrobe", a piece of furniture used for storing clothes, not for lying on.
• Rideau: This refers to "curtain", which is something you hang at a window for privacy or to block light, not something to lie down on.
• Miroir: This translates to "mirror", an item used to reflect images and not meant for lying on.

Therefore, the correct option to complete the sentence is "lit", as it is logical for someone to lie down on a bed ("lit") in a bedroom.

Choisissez l'option justeUne personne juste......la justice.

Answer Details

A person who is just follows and upholds the principles of justice. This means that they act in a fair and equitable manner, adhering to moral and legal standards. When we talk about someone's relationship with justice, the most suitable action they would take is to respect it. To respect justice means that the person abides by the rules and principles that ensure fairness and equal treatment for all. Therefore, the correct option is that a just person respects justice.

For each question, choose from the options lettered A - E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.C'est la robe de ma sceur C'est.

Answer Details

In the given sentence, "C'est la robe de ma sœur," we are referring to **a dress that belongs to my sister**. The key here is to identify the gender and the pronoun that appropriately replaces the phrase "de ma sœur".

The noun "robe" is **feminine** and **singular**. Therefore, we need a possessive pronoun that agrees with this gender and number.

• Le sien: This option is **masculine singular** and does not match the gender of "robe".
• La tienne: Although this option is **feminine singular**, it means "yours" and not "hers".
• Le nôtre: This option is also **masculine singular** and means "ours". It does not match either the gender or the ownership.
• La sienne: This option is **feminine singular** and means "hers". It perfectly matches both the gender of "robe" and the ownership of "my sister".

Thus, the correct choice to complete the sentence is **"La sienne"**, as it appropriately indicates that the dress belongs to my sister while agreeing with the gender of "robe".

For each question, choose from the options lettered A-E, the most appropriate one to complete the sentenceJ'ai vu_____professeurs.

Answer Details

In the sentence "J'ai vu_____professeurs," the blank requires you to choose the correct possessive adjective that agrees with the noun "professeurs" in both gender and number.

The noun "professeurs" is plural. In French, possessive adjectives must match the noun they refer to in number and, where applicable, gender. Let's analyze each option:

• leur: This is a possessive adjective used for "their" when referring to a plural noun. It is the correct choice because it agrees with the plural noun "professeurs." Therefore, "J'ai vu leur professeurs" means "I have seen their teachers."
• nos: This means "our" in French and is also used with plural nouns. Although it agrees in number with "professeurs," it changes the ownership to "our," which does not probably fit the context unless specified in the full sentence context.
• tes: This means "your" in the informal singular form and is used with plural nouns. While it also agrees in number, it changes the relationship of possession to "your" and does not seem fitting without context.
• ton: This means "your" in the informal singular form but is used with singular masculine nouns. It does not agree in number with "professeurs" and is thus incorrect.

In conclusion, the most appropriate possessive adjective to complete the sentence "J'ai vu_____professeurs" is "leur."

For each question, choose from the options lettered A- E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.Tu bois de la Limonade. ton anniversaire.

Answer Details

To choose the most appropriate word to complete the sentence "Tu bois de la Limonade ___ ton anniversaire?", we need to understand the context and the meaning of each word:

• tous - This word means "all" or "every" in English. It is not the correct option because it would imply that "every" birthday involves drinking lemonade, which may not make logical sense in this context.
• chacun - This word means "each" in English. This also doesn't fit well in the sentence as it suggests drinking lemonade during "each" birthday individually, which is somewhat repetitious for this context.
• pendant - This word means "during" in English. This is the correct word to use because it indicates the action of drinking lemonade takes place over the duration of the birthday celebration.
• combien - This word means "how many" in English. It is not suitable for this sentence structure as it typically precedes a noun when questioning quantity.

The most appropriate word to complete the sentence is "pendant", because it emphasizes that the action of drinking lemonade happens during the time of the birthday celebration.

For each question, choose from the options lettered A- E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.Les couleurs.

Answer Details

To determine the appropriate completion of the sentence "Les couleurs ...", we need to analyze the meaning of each provided word and consider the context in which "Les couleurs" is used.

The phrase "Les couleurs" translates to "The colors" in English. Therefore, we are referring to colors.

Let's evaluate each option:

• Blanc: This is the French word for "White" and it fits well with the phrase "Les couleurs" as it is a type of color.
• Jaune: This is the French word for "Yellow" and it also fits well with "Les couleurs" because it represents a different color.
• Orange: This is both a French word for a color (orange) and a fruit. In this context, it fits as it is also a color.
• Jour: This translates to "Day" in English, which is not a color and therefore does not fit well with the theme of "Les couleurs".

The correct completion of the sentence with respect to the context of "Les couleurs" is related to identifying an actual color. While Blanc, Jaune, and Orange all fit, "Jour" does not. It refers to a time of day, not a color, and is therefore not appropriate for the sentence.

Thus, the sentence "Les couleurs" should appropriately be completed with any of the actual color words such as "Blanc", "Jaune", or "Orange" but definitely not "Jour".

For each question, choose from the options lettered A-E, the most appropriate one to complete the sentenceC'est le stylo de__ami.

Answer Details

To determine the most appropriate completion for the sentence "C'est le stylo de__ami," it's essential to understand the context and the rules of French possessive adjectives. The phrase translates to "It's the pen of __ friend." In French, possessive adjectives must agree in gender and number with the noun they modify (which is "ami" in this case).

The word "ami" refers to a friend and is masculine and singular. Here are the options broken down:

• mon - This is the possessive adjective for "my" used with masculine singular nouns. Therefore, "mon ami" means "my friend."
• ses - This is a possessive adjective for "his/her" used with plural nouns, thus not suitable for "ami."
• tes - This is a possessive adjective for "your" used with plural nouns, thus not suitable for "ami."
• nos - This is a possessive adjective for "our" used with plural nouns, thus not suitable for "ami."

Given that "ami" is singular and masculine, the correct phrase is "mon ami," meaning "my friend." Therefore, the most appropriate option to complete the sentence is mon.

Therefore, in case of theft, it is necessary to phone the police officers - policiers, as they are equipped to handle and investigate such incidents.

Tu (prendre) un cours de musique.

Answer Details

In French, verb conjugation changes depending on the subject pronoun and the tense being used. Here, the verb "prendre," which means "to take," is being considered in the present tense for a specific subject pronoun, "tu," which means "you" (singular, informal).

Let's break down the options:

"Prend": This is incorrect because it is used with the subject pronoun "il/elle/on" (he/she/one takes).

"Prenez": This form is also incorrect in this context as it is used with "vous" (you - either plural or formal singular).

"Prennent": This form is not appropriate here as it is used with "ils/elles" (they take).

"Prends": This is the correct form because it corresponds to the subject pronoun "tu." In French, the conjugation for "prendre" with "tu" in the present tense is "tu prends." Therefore, the correct answer is "prends."

Le terrain amenage pour la pratique des sports est unlun..............

Answer Details

The term "un terrain aménagé pour la pratique des sports" refers to an area or space that is specifically designed and equipped to facilitate the practice of various sports activities. Let's examine the options provided:

• Église: This translates to "church" in English. A church is a place of worship and religious activities, but it is not designed for sports.
• Librairie: This means "bookstore" in English. A bookstore is a place to buy and sell books and is not related to sports activities.
• Stade: This is the French term for "stadium." A stadium is a venue or complex made specifically for hosting sports events and activities. It typically includes stands for spectators and facilities necessary for athletes.
• Marché: This translates to "market" in English. A market is a place where various goods and foods are bought and sold, and it is not connected to sports activities.

Thus, the correct answer is a stade, which is a stadium, as it is the place that is designed and used for playing sports. It is the location where various sporting events can be held, fulfilling the function described as "un terrain aménagé pour la pratique des sports."

hoisissez l'option justeComment s'appelle la femelle du chien?

Answer Details

The female counterpart of a dog is called a **bitch**. This term is the equivalent of the French word **"chienne"**. To break it down:

- **La chèvre** refers to a female goat.

- **La poule** refers to a hen, which is a female chicken.

- **La chatte** is the term for a female cat.

Therefore, the correct answer is **La chienne**, as it specifically refers to the female dog.

For each question, choose from the options lettered A - E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.Tu préfères chemise?

Answer Details

The sentence "Tu préfères chemise?" in English means "Do you prefer the shirt?" To complete this sentence, it's important to focus on grammatical agreement in French.

Firstly, the word "chemise" is a noun in French that is feminine and singular. When using interrogative pronouns in French to ask "which" or "what," you must match the pronoun to the gender and number of the noun it refers to.

In this context:

• "Que" is generally used to mean "what," but it is not used to directly modify nouns (it doesn't agree with gender or number).
• "Quelle" is the feminine singular interrogative pronoun meaning "which" or "what" for feminine singular nouns, making it the most suitable option for the feminine singular noun "chemise".
• "Quelles" is used for feminine plural nouns, which is inappropriate here since "chemise" is singular.
• "Quells" does not exist in French so it is incorrect.

Therefore, the correct option to complete the sentence is "quelle". The completed sentence would be "Tu préfères quelle chemise?", which translates to "Which shirt do you prefer?" in English.

Choisissez l'option justelle.......est un indication du domicile de quelqu'un.

Answer Details

The word "adresse" is the correct choice as it is an indication of someone's domicile or place of residence. In the context of identifying where someone resides:

Avenue: A street or broad roadway, often lined with trees, but not complete information about a person's location.

Adresse: This refers to the complete information for locating a person's residence or place. It includes details such as the **street number, street name, and possibly the city, postcode, and sometimes country.** An address provides the specific location of someone's domicile.

Pont: A bridge, which is a structure built to span a physical obstacle, like a body of water, road, or valley, **not used** for indicating a person's residence.

Carrefour: A crossroads or an intersection of streets, also **not typically used** as a way to indicate someone's residence.

Therefore, the **correct and complete** indication of domicile is adresse because it provides the precise location details needed for identifying where someone lives.

From the lettered A - E, choose the odd one of the options.

Le football:

Answer Details

To determine the odd one out in the options provided: "Le marteau," "Le gardien de but," "Le ballon," and "Le maillot," let's look at the meanings of each term:

• "Le marteau" translates to "the hammer." It is a tool used in various manual activities.
• "Le gardien de but" translates to "the goalkeeper." It is a position or role in football (soccer) where the person guards the goal to prevent the opposing team from scoring.
• "Le ballon" translates to "the ball." In the context of football, it is the spherical object that players kick and maneuver to score goals.
• "Le maillot" translates to "the jersey." It is worn by players as part of their football uniform.

In this list, "Le marteau" is the odd one out because it is a tool used for manual labor, whereas the other three terms are related to football (soccer). "Le gardien de but" is a position in the game, "Le ballon" is used in the game, and "Le maillot" is worn during the game. Therefore, "Le marteau" does not belong in the same category as the others.

For each question, choose from the options lettered A-E, the most appropriate one to complete the sentenceJe veux savoir_il a payé.

Answer Details

In the sentence "Je veux savoir ____ il a payé," we need to choose the word that correctly fills in the blank to complete the sentence in French. The sentence translates to "I want to know ____ he paid." Let's analyze the options:

1. "que": This translates to "that" in English. It is used to introduce a clause, but it doesn't fit in this context because it doesn't ask for any specific information.

2. "quel": This translates to "which" or "what" in English and is used to specify a noun in terms of kind or type. However, it is not used to ask about a price or amount, which is needed here.

3. "combien": This translates to "how much" or "how many" in English and is the best fit for this sentence. It asks for a specific quantity or amount, which relates directly to asking about the amount of money paid.

4. "dont": This translates to "whose" or "of which" in English and is used in relative clauses. It doesn't fit in this context either.

Based on the analysis, the most appropriate word to complete the sentence is "combien". So, the completed sentence is: "Je veux savoir combien il a payé," which means "I want to know how much he paid."

Choisissez l'option justeQuand deux personnes se marient, il y a un/une.

Answer Details

In the context of the question, when two people get married, the term that accurately describes this event is a marriage. A marriage is a formal union recognized by law, where two individuals usually vow to live together in a committed relationship. The other options listed do not correctly fit the scenario:

• Baptême: This is a baptism, a religious ceremony signifying spiritual cleansing and rebirth, not associated with people getting married.
• Accident: This refers to an unexpected and typically negative event, unrelated to marriage.
• Mort: This means death, which is unrelated to the concept of marriage.

Therefore, the correct option to describe the event when two people marry is mariage.

Choisissez l'option justeLe Bénin est un/u.................. Afrique occidentale.

Answer Details

The correct choice is country. Therefore, the statement should be: "Le Bénin est un pays d'Afrique occidentale." Here's why:

Explanation:

• Country: A country is a nation with its own government, occupying a particular territory. Benin is recognized as an independent nation in West Africa.
• Continent: A continent is a large continuous mass of land conventionally regarded as a collective region. Africa is the continent; Benin is a part of it, not the entire continent itself.
• Village: A village is a small community or group of houses in a rural area. Benin is much larger than a village; it is an entire country comprising many cities and villages.
• Eat: While 'eat' is a verb referring to the act of consuming food, it does not describe or categorize Benin, as it has no relation to the geographical or political status of Benin.

The term used, "pays", is the French word for country, fitting the context of the sentence as it accurately describes Benin's status as a country in West Africa.

On se sertd' un/une.......pour écrire au tableau noir.

Answer Details

The question is asking about the tool used to write on a blackboard.

Let's examine the options one by one:

• Craie (Chalk): This is a soft, white, porous sedimentary carbonate rock. Chalk is typically used to write on blackboards because it easily rubs off to allow new writing.
• Crayon (Pencil): Pencils contain graphite and are typically used to write on paper. They are not suitable for blackboards as they don't write and erase well on such surfaces.
• Règle (Ruler): A ruler is used for measuring lengths and drawing straight lines. It is not a writing instrument.
• Plume (Pen): A pen uses ink and is suitable for writing on paper. It is not used on blackboards as it is permanent and cannot be easily erased.

Therefore, the correct answer is Craie (Chalk) because it is specifically designed for use on blackboards due to its ability to make visible marks easily and be wiped off without much effort.

For each question, choose from the options lettered A-E, the most appropriate one to complete the sentenceSi vous cherchez un chien dappartement,prenez.

Answer Details

To complete the sentence "Si vous cherchez un chien d'appartement, prenez...," we need to choose the most appropriate demonstrative pronoun. In this context:

1. **Celle**: This pronoun is feminine and refers to "the one." However, without any specification or context, it is incomplete for this sentence.

2. **Ceci**: This pronoun means "this," but it is neutral and does not appropriately refer to specific feminine nouns.

3. **Celle-ci**: This pronoun means "this one" (here) and is used to refer to something mentioned and nearby or presented as an option among others. It's a feminine singular form and suitable for referring to a specific apartment dog that is available or nearby in context.

4. **Celle-là**: This pronoun means "that one" (over there) and is used to refer to something mentioned but further away or less immediate in context.

Given the sentence context where someone is advised to take an apartment dog, the most fitting would be **celle-ci**, as it suggests a specific choice among potential options of dogs that are being referred to immediately.

From the lettered A E, choose the odd one of the options.
L'ecole:

Answer Details

To determine the odd one out among the given options, we need to understand the meanings of each word in the context of their usage related to "L'école," which means "School" in French. Here's a brief explanation:

• L'ecole: School
• Un crayon: A pencil (A common item used in a school setting for writing.)
• Une fourchette: A fork (A utensil primarily used for eating and not commonly associated with school activities.)
• Un cahier: A notebook (Another common item used in schools for taking notes.)
• Un tableau: A blackboard or whiteboard (A tool you find in classrooms for educators to present information.)

The odd one out is "Une fourchette." The reason is that it is a kitchen utensil used for eating and is not directly related to school supplies or activities, unlike the other items listed which are typically found in a school environment.

For each question, choose from the options lettered A-E, the most appropriate one to complete the sentenceC'est non livre! C'est.

Answer Details

In French, possessive adjectives change based on the gender and number of the noun they are referring to. In the sentence "C'est non livre! C'est.?", we are talking about a book ("livre"), which is masculine in French.

Here’s what each option means:

• le miea: This is not a correct possessive form. The correct phrase should be "le mien" for a masculine singular noun.


• la tinne: This is an incorrect possessive form and also incorrectly uses feminine form "la" with a masculine noun.


• les tiens: This refers to "yours" in masculine plural form, while "livre" is singular.


• Je sien: This is incorrect due to "Je" being unnecessary and "sien" is not the correct possessive for the noun in question.

The correct possessive pronoun to fill in the sentence "C'est mon livre! C'est ___." is "le mien". It corresponds correctly with "mon livre" meaning "my book" to give "It's mine." in masculine singular form.

 Une chemiseFrom the lettered A - E, choose the odd one of the options.

Les vêtements:

Answer Details

In the given list, the term "Les vêtements" means "clothing" in English. The items being considered are related to clothing, except for one.

Une cravat (a tie), Un pantalon (a pair of pants), and Une chemise (a shirt) are all clothing items. These items can be worn and are articles of clothing.

Un livre, which translates to "a book," is the odd one out of the options. It is not a clothing item but rather an object for reading. It serves a different function than the other items listed, which are meant for wearing.

Choisissez l'option justeOn va chez l'opticien quand on a rma aux.

Answer Details

To determine the correct option for this question, we need to understand what an "optician" is and what services they provide. An **optician** is a professional who specializes in fitting and dispensing corrective lenses for the eyes. Typically, people visit an optician when they have issues related to their **eyes** or vision.

Given this explanation, we should associate going to an optician with eye-related concerns. The option that pertains to the eyes in the given list of options is **"yeux"**, which is the French word for **"eyes."** Therefore, the correct option here is **yeux** because one would go to an optician when they have problems with their eyes.

Mettez à la forme du verbe qui convient Qu'est-ce que vous (choisir)?

Answer Details

In French, verbs need to be conjugated to agree with the subject in both number (singular/plural) and person (first, second, third). Here, we must choose the correct form of the verb "choisir" in the context of the sentence with the subject "vous".

The subject "vous" can be used in two situations:

• When addressing one individual formally.
• When addressing more than one person (plural).

In both cases, the appropriate conjugation of the verb "choisir" for "vous" is "choisissez".

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Qu'est-ce que vous choisissez ?"

This conjugation is in the present tense, and it relates the action directly to the ongoing conversation or moment. Thus, when you ask someone, "Qu'est-ce que vous choisissez ?", it translates to "What are you choosing?" or "What do you choose?" in English, addressing either a single person formally or multiple people.

Je (aller) au garage du quartier.

Answer Details

The sentence provided, "Je (aller) au garage du quartier," requires the correct conjugation of the verb **aller** (to go) for the subject **Je** (I) in the present tense.

In French, verbs are conjugated based on the subject pronoun that is being used. **Aller** is an irregular verb, so it does not follow the regular conjugation patterns. The conjugations of **aller** for the present tense are as follows:

• Je vais
• Tu vas
• Il/Elle/On va
• Nous allons
• Vous allez
• Ils/Elles vont

For the subject pronoun **Je** (I), the correct conjugation is **vais**. Therefore, the complete and correct sentence should be:

Je vais au garage du quartier.

In this sentence, **"vais"** means "am going," making it the appropriate verb form to express the action of going to the garage in your neighborhood.

Jevais à Lagos _____ les vacances.

Answer Details

The sentence in French is: "Jevais à Lagos _____ les vacances." The aim is to choose the correct preposition to complete the sentence. Here's what each option means:

• pendant: This means "during" in English. In French, it's used to indicate the duration of an action or event. It is appropriate when referring to time periods such as holidays or vacations.
• par: This means "by" or "through" and is typically used to express means or agency, for example, traveling by train ("par train"). It doesn't fit in this context.
• contre: This means "against" and is used when expressing opposition or contact with something. It is not relevant to the context of going somewhere for holidays.
• depuis: This translates to "since" or "for," and indicates the start point of an action that continues. It is not appropriate to use with the concept of spending a vacation somewhere.

Thus, the correct preposition to use in this context is "pendant" because it correctly describes engaging in a trip over a certain duration, particularly during the vacation period. The correct sentence is: "Jevais à Lagos pendant les vacances."

L'/L.........est le plus long fleuve d'Afrique.

Answer Details

The correct answer to the question regarding the longest river in Africa is the Nile. The Nile River is not only the longest river in Africa but is often considered the longest river in the world. It flows through northeastern Africa, passing through countries such as Uganda, Sudan, and Egypt, finally emptying into the Mediterranean Sea. The total length of the Nile is approximately 6,650 kilometers or about 4,130 miles.

In comparison, the other rivers mentioned in the options are shorter:

• Niger River: This river is the third longest river in Africa with an approximate length of 4,180 kilometers (about 2,600 miles). It flows through countries such as Nigeria, Mali, and Niger.
• Congo River: Known for being the second longest river in Africa, the Congo River has an approximate length of 4,700 kilometers (about 2,920 miles). It flows through countries like the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Republic of the Congo.
• Orange River: This river is much shorter, with an estimated length of 2,200 kilometers (about 1,367 miles). It mainly flows through South Africa and forms the border between South Africa and Namibia.

Thus, the Nile River is recognized as the longest river in Africa.

Choisissez l'option justeOn joue au volleyball à l'/au.

Answer Details

In French, the preposition used before a noun can indicate the location or place where the activity is performed. The article that follows the preposition agrees with the gender and number of the noun it precedes.

The phrases in the question involve locations where volleyball is played. Let's analyze each location:

• **église:** In French, 'église' (church) is feminine, and you would use the preposition "à la". Usually, volleyball is not played in or at a church.
• **école:** In French, 'école' (school) is feminine, so you would use "à l'". Volleyball can be played at schools, but it's not as common as a gym or field.
• **cinéma:** In French, 'cinéma' (cinema) is masculine, and usually, you would use "au". However, volleyball is not played at a cinema.
• **stade:** In French, 'stade' (stadium) is masculine, and you use the contraction "au" which is short for "à le". **Stadiums are common places where sports, including volleyball, are played.**

Therefore, the correct option to indicate a place where volleyball is commonly played is **"au stade."**

For each question, choose from the options lettered A - E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.Voici mon sac ! Cest le ....

Answer Details

In French, the sentence "Voici mon sac ! C’est le ....?" is set up to refer to ownership or possession. This involves the use of possessive pronouns, which replace nouns to show ownership, similar to ‘mine’, ‘yours’, etc., in English.

In the sentence, "Voici mon sac!" which translates to "Here is my bag!" the word “mon” is a masculine singular possessive adjective because "sac" (bag) is masculine and singular.

The blank "C’est le ....?" means "It is the ....?". To complete this sentence with a possessive pronoun that matches the gender and number, we need to find the correct possessive pronoun for a masculine singular noun.

The correct option is “mien.” This is because “mien” is the masculine singular possessive pronoun in French that matches the previously used "mon" and refers back to the singular masculine noun "sac".

Therefore, the completed sentence is: "Voici mon sac ! C’est le mien." which translates to "Here is my bag! It is mine."

For each question, choose from the options lettered A- E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.From the options lettere A-E, choose the one that is odd. La classe.

Answer Details

To determine the odd one out, we need to look at the meanings and categorizations of each item listed:

• Une craie: This means "a piece of chalk" in French and is associated with classroom supplies.
• Une chaise: This means "a chair" in French and is a piece of classroom furniture.
• Un canard: This means "a duck" in French, which is an animal and not related to classroom items.
• Un livre: This means "a book" in French and is often found in a classroom setting.

In this context, the items "une craie," "une chaise," and "un livre" are all related to a classroom or educational setting. Un canard is different because it is an animal and does not have direct relevance to a classroom setup. Therefore, the word that is the odd one out is Un canard.
