Card 1: Photo Description and Holiday Topics
The first part asks you to describe what you see in a photo. You'll typically mention who's in the picture, what they're wearing, and what they're doing. Keep it simple - "Sur la photo, il y a..." (In the photo, there are...) is your best starting phrase.
Next, you'll discuss family celebrations and holidays. The example covers a family day trip to a castle, watching an action film, and different family members' opinions. Notice how the response includes past tense verbs and contrasting viewpoints - this shows good language range.
The Saint Valentine's Day question demonstrates how to express opinions with reasons. Key phrases include "j'aime... parce que" (I like... because) and listing activities you can do. Always back up your opinions with specific examples.
Exam Tip: For any "pourquoi?" (why?) question, always give at least two reasons to show you can develop your answers.
