2. Which of the following means 'to have breakfast'?

Explanation

"Prendre le petit-déjeuner" translates directly to "to have breakfast" in French. The phrase literally means "to take the little lunch," as "petit-déjeuner" refers to the morning meal. In contrast, "se coucher" means "to go to bed," "se laver" means "to wash oneself," and "s'habiller" means "to get dressed." Therefore, "prendre le petit-déjeuner" is the only option that specifically refers to the act of having breakfast.

Submit

3. What is the French term for 'secondary school'?

Explanation

In France, "le collège" refers to the educational institution that serves as secondary school for students typically aged 11 to 15. It follows "l'école primaire" (primary school) and precedes "le lycée," where students prepare for higher education. "Le collège" provides a foundational education, covering various subjects before students choose specialized paths in high school.

Submit

4. Which phrase means 'in my opinion'?

Explanation

"Mon avis" translates directly to "my opinion" in French, making it the phrase that explicitly conveys a personal viewpoint. While "je pense que" and "je trouve que" also express thoughts and beliefs, they do not directly mean "in my opinion." "C'est intéressant" means "it's interesting," which does not align with the idea of personal opinion. Thus, "mon avis" is the most accurate choice for expressing one's perspective.

Submit

5. What does 'faire ses devoirs' mean?

Explanation

'Faire ses devoirs' is a French phrase that translates directly to 'to do one's homework' in English. The term 'devoirs' refers specifically to assignments or tasks that students are expected to complete outside of class, commonly known as homework. The other options do not align with the meaning of the phrase, making 'to do homework' the appropriate translation.

Submit

6. Which of the following means 'to take the plane'?

Explanation

"Prendre l'avion" translates directly to "to take the plane" in English. In French, "prendre" means "to take," and "l'avion" means "the plane." This phrase is commonly used when referring to air travel, making it the most accurate choice among the options provided. The other choices do not relate specifically to taking a plane; "voyager" means "to travel," "un séjour" means "a stay," and "la culture" means "the culture."

Submit

7. What is the French word for 'vegetables'?

Explanation

In French, the word "légumes" specifically refers to vegetables, distinguishing them from other food categories. "Fruits" translates to fruits, "viande" means meat, and "poisson" means fish. Thus, "les légumes" is the accurate term for vegetables in the French language, encompassing a variety of edible plants that are not fruits.

Submit

8. Which phrase means 'to do sport'?

Explanation

"Faire du sport" translates directly to "to do sport" in English, making it the most accurate phrase for the activity of engaging in sports or physical exercise. Unlike "jouer au football," which specifically means "to play football," or other options that refer to specific sports or training, "faire du sport" encompasses all types of sporting activities.

Submit

9. What does 'la cantine' refer to?

Explanation

'La cantine' is a French term that translates to 'the canteen' in English. It typically refers to a dining area or cafeteria, often found in schools, workplaces, or military settings where meals are served. This term is commonly used in French-speaking regions to denote a place where people gather to eat, distinguishing it from other facilities such as libraries, parks, or cinemas, which serve different purposes.

Submit

10. Which of the following means 'to celebrate'?

Explanation

The word "célébrer" is the French verb that directly translates to "to celebrate" in English. It is commonly used in contexts involving festivities, commemorations, and joyful occasions. The other options—inviter (to invite), organiser (to organize), and décorer (to decorate)—do not convey the same meaning of celebrating an event or occasion. Thus, "célébrer" is the appropriate choice for expressing the act of celebration.

Submit

Explanation

In French, the term for 'family' is "la famille." This word encompasses the concept of a family unit, including parents, children, and sometimes extended relatives.

12. Which phrase means 'to protect'?

Explanation

"Protéger" is a French verb that directly translates to "to protect" in English. It conveys the action of safeguarding or defending someone or something from harm or danger. The other options do not relate to the concept of protection: "gaspiller" means to waste, "recycler" means to recycle, and "économiser" means to save or conserve. Thus, "protéger" is the phrase that accurately represents the meaning of protection.

Submit

13. What does 'la pollution' mean?

Explanation

'La pollution' is a French term that translates directly to 'pollution' in English. It refers to the introduction of harmful substances or contaminants into the environment, affecting air, water, and soil quality.

Thus, "réviser" is the term that directly corresponds to the act of revising.

Submit

15. What is the French word for 'homework'?

Explanation

In French, the term "les devoirs" specifically refers to homework or assignments that students are required to complete outside of class. The other options do not relate to homework: "un examen" means an exam, "un contrôle" refers to a test or quiz, and "une pause" means a break. Therefore, "les devoirs" is the accurate translation for homework in the context of school-related tasks.

Submit

16. Which phrase means 'to wash oneself'?

Explanation

"Se laver" is a French reflexive verb that directly translates to "to wash oneself."
