Questions
You answer them with the text in front of you. It isn't memory: it's understanding.
What information changes Rachid’s purchase?
Lou lui signale sa restriction alimentaire. — Before shopping, Lou says she cannot eat walnuts; Rachid switches from walnut biscuits to ones without walnuts.
Why does Rachid keep the packet after changing biscuits?
Pour permettre à Lou de vérifier son choix. — He keeps the ingredients list, and Lou reads it before eating, allowing her to check the chosen product.
If the cupboard is locked and Émilie cannot open it, which serving task remains unresolved with what they brought?
Trouver des récipients pour boire. — Lou forgot cups and the mugs are in the cupboard; without access, drinking containers are missing. The packet and napkins have arrived.
What combines the group’s contributions with what was already in the room?
Verser la boisson dans les tasses disponibles. — Lou brings the drink and the mugs were already in the cupboard; together they allow serving it.
After shopping, Lou discovers that Rachid did not receive her warning and bought what he originally proposed. What should she check before helping herself?
La présence de noix dans les biscuits achetés. — The original proposal contains nuts, which Lou cannot eat. Without the warning, the stated change does not happen, so she needs to check the ingredients. Lou makes the drink and the cups are clean; these details do not resolve the biscuit restriction.
If everyone takes away what they brought, what remains in the room according to the story?
Les tasses propres. — Lou brings the drink and Émilie the napkins; the mugs were already in the room’s cupboard.
