• To get full credit, you need to respond in a complete sentence saying where one can buy such things (On peut acheter... à ...).
• You can use le supermarché in no more than one response. The rest of your responses must use terms for specific shops.
• CAH will ask you two questions about whether you like shopping, who in your family does the shopping, and/or what items you enjoy shopping for.
• You must then ask CAH one grocery-related question. CAH will respond in second-year French. You will translate his response into English.

Les Devoirs: Write eight possible questions and answers that you might hear in this oral interview! Write them down, be prepared to practice them out loud next time.
