maîtriser les formules interrogatives.

Vous devez vous exprimer en tant que Peter McAllister ou Tanya Kapur (étudiant(e) )
N’oubliez pas les règles élémentaires du dialogue :
- Des guillemets (“ ...” et non « … » )
- Des verbes introducteurs variés et conjugués au prétérit
- Pas d’inversion pronom personnel verbe ( he said et non said he)
- Des adverbes ou expressions pour définir le ton sur lequel on s’exprime
(he said nervously / I answered quickly / in a calm voice…)
- Un passage à la ligne à chaque changement d’interlocuteur
