JAMB UTME - French - 2024

Answer Details

The sentence "Un......est une personne qui travaille à la boulangerie" translates to "A......is a person who works at the bakery" in English. To determine the correct word that fits in the blank, we must understand the roles of each professional:

Épicier: This is a grocer, someone who works in or owns a grocery store. They sell various food items but do not specialize in baked goods or work at a bakery.

Poissonnier: This is a fishmonger, a person who sells fish and seafood. They typically work in a fish market or a section of a grocery store that specializes in seafood, not in a bakery.

Boulanger: This is a baker, a person who specializes in baking and works in a bakery. A baker is responsible for making bread, pastries, and other baked goods. This role fits the description of someone working at a bakery perfectly.

Boucher: This is a butcher, an individual who prepares and sells meat. Butchers usually work in butcher shops or meat sections of supermarkets and do not work specifically at a bakery.

The correct answer is Boulanger, as they are the ones who work in a bakery. The term "boulangerie" directly translates to "bakery" in English. Thus, a "boulanger" is a person who works at a "boulangerie".

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."

Answer Details

In the given French sentence, "Est-ce qu'il regarde la fille? Oui il ___ regarde.", we need to fill in the blank with the correct form of the pronoun or article.

The sentence translates to "Is he looking at the girl? Yes, he ___ looking at her." The blank is meant to replace "the girl," so we need the correct pronoun to refer back to "la fille."

In French, the pronoun used to replace feminine singular nouns (like "la fille") is "la". Therefore, the correct completion of the sentence is "Oui, il la regarde."

**Explanation**:

• "I'" - This is not a French pronoun or article, so it is incorrect in this context.
• "la" - This is the correct direct object pronoun for feminine singular nouns in French. It refers back to "la fille" in the sentence.
• "les" - This is a plural pronoun or article, used for plural nouns. "La fille" is singular, so "les" cannot be used here.
• "le" - This is a masculine singular pronoun or article. Since "la fille" is feminine, "le" is incorrect in this context.

In summary, the correct option is "la" because it correctly refers back to a singular feminine noun, "la fille."

Answer Details

The sentence "Elle se brosse les dents d'aller se coucher" is meant to convey the sequence of actions or the reason why the action is performed. In this context, it implies that she is brushing her teeth in order to go to bed. The options provided suggest different prepositions that could be used to complete the sentence correctly. Let's briefly examine each:

1. "depuis": This means "since" or "from" in English. It indicates time or origin and would not fit logically into the sentence because it doesn't connect the two actions appropriately.

2. "avait": This is a form of the verb "avoir," meaning "had." It is not a preposition and does not serve to logically connect brushing teeth with going to bed in this sentence.

3. "avec": Meaning "with," this preposition implies accompaniment or association. It suggests doing two actions together but not sequentially or in purpose-based association, which doesn’t align with the intended meaning of the sentence.

4. "derrière": This means "behind" or "afterward." While it indicates sequence physically or in time, this preposition is not typically used to denote the purpose of an action.

The appropriate word to complete the sentence logically would be a preposition like **"avant"** meaning **"before"**, so the sentence would become: "Elle se brosse les dents avant d'aller se coucher." This clearly explains that she brushes her teeth **before** going to bed, showing the correct sequence of the actions.

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**.

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."

Answer Details

The sentence given is "Le sport." We're trying to complete or evaluate the sentence with a choice that appropriately defines what "Le sport" typically refers to. In French, "Le sport" translates to "The sport" in English and generally refers to any kind of athletic activity or physical competition.

Looking at the options:

• Le basket-ball (Basketball)
• Le football (Football/Soccer)
• Le rap (Rap - which is a genre of music)
• La natation (Swimming)

Both "Le basket-ball" and "Le football" are traditional sports since they involve physical activity, rules, and competitions. Similarly, "La natation" (swimming) is considered a sport. However, **Rap** does not fit the category of sport as it is a genre of music, involving lyrical and rhythmic artistry. Therefore, it does not involve **physical activity** in a context similar to sports.

Thus, if you need to choose the option that does not belong with the theme of "Le sport," you would choose **Le rap**. The rest are types of sports. Remember, the key characteristic of sports is **physical activity, competition, and structured rules**, which does not align with music genres.

Answer Details

In French, verbs need to be conjugated to match the subject of the sentence. The verb provided here is "commencer," which means "to begin" or "to start."

The subject in the sentence is "Ils," which means "they." In French, the pronoun "Ils" takes a specific verb conjugation. For verbs ending in -er like "commencer," the form that matches "Ils" is different from other subjects.

The correct conjugation for "Ils" with the verb "commencer" is "commencent." This is because "commencent" is the third person plural form of "commencer," which is used with the pronoun "Ils" (they).

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Ils commencent leur travail après le match de foot." This translates to "They start their work after the soccer match."

Answer Details

To find the correct word that completes the sentence "Voilà man parapluie et voilà........ma soeur," it is important to understand how demonstrative pronouns are used in French, especially in distinguishing gender and number.

The phrase "Voilà mon parapluie" translates to "There is my umbrella" and "Voilà............ma soeur" translates to "There is...........my sister."

The word "parapluie" (umbrella) is masculine, which is correctly complemented with "mon." The options are related to the second part of the sentence "Voilà...........ma soeur," which involves identifying the demonstrative pronoun correctly matching "ma soeur" (my sister).

Here is a simple breakdown:

1. Masculine Demonstrative Pronouns:

• celui - Used for singular masculine nouns.

2. Feminine Demonstrative Pronouns:

• celle - Used for singular feminine nouns.
• celle-là - Form of "celle" with emphasis: Used for singular feminine nouns, often to imply a distinction.

3. Plural Demonstrative Pronoun:

• celles - Used for plural feminine nouns.

Since "soeur" is feminine and singular, the correct demonstrative pronoun is "celle." Therefore, the sentence should be completed as "Voilà mon parapluie et voilà celle ma soeur," indicating "there is my umbrella and there is the one my sister."

In conclusion, the correct choice is "celle" because it is the singular feminine demonstrative pronoun that corresponds appropriately with "my sister."

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.

Answer Details

This sentence is saying "Let's not talk about his/her work. Let's talk about yours." The possessive adjective "votre" agrees with the plura noun "vous" (implied in the sentence), indicating that the speaker is addressing someone and asking to discuss their work instead. In this sentence, the correct answer is "votre" because it is the possessive adjective that agrees with the second-person plural pronoun "vous" (implied in the sentence). The other options do not agree with the context and grammar of the sentence.
By choosing "votre" the sentence maintains the correct grammar and possessive agreement, indicating that the speaker is addressing someone and asking to discuss their work instead.

Answer Details

The sentence "Je parle aux élèves" translates to "I speak to the students." In this sentence, "aux élèves" refers to a group of people to whom the speaker is talking, specifically the students.

To complete the phrase "Je parle..." correctly, you need a pronoun that refers back to "aux élèves" (to the students) without repeating the whole phrase.

In French, "aux élèves" is an indirect object. The appropriate pronoun for the indirect object in this case is "leur", which means "to them". Therefore, the sentence should be completed as "Je parle leur", which translates to "I speak to them."

Explanation of Options:

• les - This is a direct object pronoun for "them" (plural). It would be used if the verb required a direct object.


• la - This is a singular direct object pronoun for "her" or "it" (feminine singular). It does not fit our context as we are dealing with plural and indirect reference.


• leur - This is the correct plural indirect object pronoun for "to them," matching the indirect object in the original sentence.
• le - This is a singular direct object pronoun for "him" or "it" (masculine singular). This is not the correct form for an indirect object.

Therefore, the appropriate choice to complete the sentence is "Je parle leur."

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.

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.

Answer Details

In the sentence, "La maison," you're dealing with a French noun. In French, a noun is often complemented by a descriptor or related term to complete or specify its meaning. In this context, "La maison" translates to "The house" in English. Therefore, to complete the sentence, you need a noun or noun phrase that logically relates to or is typically found in a house.

Let's look at the provided words:

• La classe: This means "The class" in English and is typically associated with a school environment, not a house, so it does not logically complete the sentence.
• La cuisine: This means "The kitchen" in English and is a room commonly found in a house. It logically completes the sentence "La maison," making it an appropriate choice.
• La salle de bain: This means "The bathroom" in English, which is also commonly found in a house. However, among all the options, "La cuisine" generally comes to mind first when thinking of a standard room in a house.
• La chambre: This means "The bedroom" in English, another standard room in a house. However, the kitchen is inherently related to the core functions of a house (cooking and food preparation).

Therefore, the most appropriate option to complete the sentence "La maison" is La cuisine.

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.

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.

Answer Details

When we think of transportation specifically on the sea, we are referring to a mode of transport that can efficiently travel over water. From the given options: metro, taxi, camel, and boat, the only one that aligns with this requirement is the boat.

A boat is a small to medium-sized vessel intended for travel on water. It can be powered by sails, engines, or even manual rowing, and it is designed to float and move across oceans, seas, lakes, and rivers. Boats have been historically used for fishing, transportation, and recreation. They are equipped to handle the various conditions found on water, whether calm or stormy.

In contrast, the other options mentioned:

• Metro: A form of urban railway network used for mass transit in cities, operating on land.
• Taxi: A land vehicle used for personal transport from one place to another within urban environments.
• Camel: An animal used traditionally for transport and travel in desert regions.

Thus, the correct answer for a means of transport on the sea is a boat.

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.

Answer Details

This question requires us to determine which French term best completes the sentence "Les vétements." To do so, we need to understand what "Les vétements" means in English.

"Les vêtements" means "clothing" or "clothes." Therefore, we need an option that relates to clothing.

• Le chapeau: This means "the hat." Hats are types of clothing accessories that people wear on their heads.
• Le bic: This means "the pen." Pens are writing implements and are not related to clothing.
• La robe: This means "the dress." Dresses are garments or articles of clothing.
• La ceinture: This means "the belt." Belts are accessories used to style clothes or hold pants and skirts in place.

Out of all these options, "Le chapeau," "La robe," and "La ceinture" are related to clothing. However, if your context is specifically referring to an article of clothing (and not an accessory like "Le chapeau" or "La ceinture"), then La robe (the dress) would directly fit the "Les vêtements" category as it is an actual garment.

Therefore, the most suitable choice from the given options to complete the sentence "Les vêtements" would be La robe.

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.

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.

Answer Details

The number of seasons in Nigeria is two. Nigeria, due to its geographical location, has two primary seasons which are the rainy season and the dry season.

The rainy season usually occurs from about April to October. During this period, the conditions are typically wetter with increased rainfall, especially in the southern regions of Nigeria.

The dry season occurs from about November to March. This period is characterized by less rainfall and drier conditions. It includes the Harmattan season, which is a dry, dusty wind blowing from the Sahara desert across West Africa, usually observed from December to February.

So, the correct answer is two seasons in Nigeria.

Answer Details

To determine the odd one out in the given list, let's first understand the meaning of each option:

• La marmite: This is a French word that means "the pot" in English. A marmite is commonly used for cooking in the kitchen.
• Le cahier: This translates to "the notebook" in English. A notebook is primarily used for writing.
• Le couteau: This word means "the knife" in English. A knife is a kitchen utensil used for cutting.
• L'assiette: This term translates to "the plate" in English. A plate is used to hold or serve food and is commonly found in the kitchen.

The context given is "La cuisine", which means "the kitchen" in English. Most of the options listed are items associated with a kitchen or cooking:

• La marmite - a pot used for cooking.
• Le couteau - a knife used for cutting food.
• L'assiette - a plate used for serving food.

However, Le cahier (the notebook) is the one item that is not typically associated with the kitchen or cooking activities. It is used for writing, taking notes, and is usually found in a study or office setting. Therefore, the odd one out is Le cahier.

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.

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".

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.

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.

Answer Details

To determine which device is used to cook food, let's look at the options provided:

• Frigidaire: This is a French word for refrigerator, which is used to keep food cool or frozen. It is not used for cooking.


• Fer à repasser: This translates to "iron" in English, which is used to press clothes and remove wrinkles. It is not associated with cooking.


• Cuisinière: This is the French word for "stove" or "cooker." This device is specifically designed to cook food, as it typically includes burners and an oven for that purpose. This is the correct answer.


• Radio: A device used for listening to audio broadcasts. It is not a cooking device.

Given the descriptions of each option, the correct answer is cuisinière, which serves the purpose of cooking food.

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."

Answer Details

The sentence in French is seeking the correct word to replace "the house" when referring to it belonging to the "chief of the village." In order to choose the correct word, we need to understand both the gender of the noun it is replacing and the grammatical structure.

In French, the word "maison" (house) is a feminine noun which means that when we want to say "this one" or "that one" in reference to a feminine singular noun, we use "celle". This is similar to saying "Non, it is the one of the village chief." when referring back to "house," which is female in French grammar.

Therefore, the correct complete sentence in French is:

"Est-ce que cette maison appartient à ton oncle? Non, c'est celle du chef du village."

Answer Details

In French, the phrase "Un homme courageux" translates to "A courageous man" in English. A man who is courageous is characterized by their **bravery** when facing danger, challenges, or difficult situations. Courage does not pertain to physical appearance such as being **ugly** or **handsome**. It is an inner quality related to mental strength and the willingness to confront fear. Therefore, a courageous man is an individual who is **brave** and not someone who is **cowardly** or lacks courage. Hence, "brave" is the term that accurately describes "un homme courageux".

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."

Answer Details

In any situation where a theft occurs, it is important to contact the authority responsible for maintaining law, order, and safety. This organization is typically involved in handling crimes, ensuring public security, and investigating illegal activities. From the options provided:

• Maçons are masons, individuals who work with building materials like stone and brick. They are not responsible for handling theft cases.
• Marchands are merchants or traders who buy and sell goods. They are not involved in crime prevention or investigation.
• Avocats are lawyers who provide legal advice and represent clients in legal matters, but they are not the primary contact for reporting a theft.
• Policiers are police officers. They are responsible for maintaining public safety and security, investigating crimes, and responding to incidents like theft.

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

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".

Answer Details

Among the list of animals, the lion is considered a wild animal. Here's a simple explanation:

A wild animal is one that lives in its natural habitat without direct reliance on humans for food or shelter. Lions typically live in the wild, such as in the savannas of Africa. They hunt for their food and have not been domesticated by humans.

On the other hand, a dog, a pig, and a rooster are considered domesticated animals. These animals have been bred by humans for many years to live alongside people, providing companionship, labor, or food.

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.

In the French language, articles change based on the gender and the beginning letter of the noun they accompany. Let's see which article fits with each of the nouns provided:

1. Hôpital: The word "hôpital" begins with a silent 'h' and is masculine. Therefore, the correct article is "à l'" because "hôpital" starts with a vowel sound. Hence, "à l'hôpital" is correct.

2. École: The word "école" is feminine, and since it begins with a vowel sound, the correct article is also "à l'" resulting in "à l'école".

3. Maison: The word "maison" is feminine and begins with a consonant. Therefore, the correct feminine article is "à la", making "à la maison" correct.

4. Cinéma: The word "cinéma" is masculine and starts with a consonant. Therefore, the correct article is "au" (a contraction of "à le"), which gives us "au cinéma".

Since the statement is "J'ai de la fièvre", going to a place typically associated with medical attention is logical. Among the options, "hôpital" is the appropriate choice. Thus, the correct article and noun combination is "à l'hôpital", meaning "I have a fever. I am going to the hospital."

To complete the French sentence "Ils ont une voiture. C'est ... voiture." we need to use a possessive adjective that correctly corresponds to the subject and the noun it qualifies.

1. **Subject and Noun Analysis:** - The subject of the first sentence is "Ils," which means "They" in English. - The noun in the second sentence is "voiture," meaning "car," and it is feminine singular.

2. **Possessive Adjective Matching:** - **"Ton"** (your) is used when referring to "tu" (you, singular) and is not a match for "ils." - **"Leur"** (their) is a possessive adjective for "ils" (they), and it fits because we are talking about something they possess. - **"Tes"** (your, plural) is related to "tu" (you) and is used when the noun is plural, which does not apply here since "voiture" is singular. - **"Nos"** (our) is used when referring to "nous" (we), which does not relate to "ils."

Therefore, the most appropriate word to complete the sentence is **"leur."** It correctly matches the subject "ils" and the context of possession. The completed sentence is: "Ils ont une voiture. C'est **leur** voiture."
