There are several types of questions: ● Quote questions ● Multiple choice questions ● Transformation questions: Here, you have to slightly alter the text so it fits the question. For example, if the questions says:
Qui regardait-il ? And the text says: Je regardais mon frère. Then your answer will be: Il regardait son frère.
● Grammar questions: You might be asked to quote a tense, an adverb, etc. See page 447 for a reminder of the most common grammar terms.
