“Care for a lunch while on the road? This vehicle parked near the front entrance of the Monoprix building will surely remind you of your grumbling stomach if ever you’ll pass by it. The white car printed with the name ‘Chevy’ on its sides and at the back would surely make you want to grab some succulent red meat for lunch. Meat dishes are wonderfully prepared in France that even this white, innocent looking car could convince you to eat right at that instant.” |

When you think about french car makers, you think about Renault. That company is also part of French history. Pay a visit to its unique “boutique” on Champs-Elysees and you will know why.
“Encore une photo prise sur la plus belle avenue du monde, devant la vitrine d’une très grande marque…” |

“Christmas is around the corner in this souvenir store. Positioned right at the middle of the different fine gifts of Paris is a small while Christmas tree with several trimmings. All around it, you’ll see post cards, bookmarks, stationeries, books, and pens. Most of them have the Eiffel tower depicted on it. And those are the best ones to send to your family and friends back home. If you happen to be in France, don’t forget to drop by a bookstore or a souvenir shop. Get yourself and your friends some mementos of the visit.” |

| This week, let’s work on a dictation with Victor Hugo. He was not only a French poet, but also an essayist, a statesman, a visual artist and a human rights campaigner, and perhaps the most influential exponent of the Romantic movement in France. Conservative in his youth, Hugo moved to the political left. Just click below to listen to the dictation in French, and try to type what you hear. Good luck ! |

“Take a look at this athlete. If you look through his eyes, it is as if he’s daring you to play ball with him. The image looks good that it seems like he could come out of the picture anytime to get the game going. The poster is so good and crisp this life-size picture looks like a three-dimensional image of this famous athlete holding the soccer ball. This is just one minor attraction of Paris. There is certainly a whole range of others if you decide to visit.” |
