Ask her what she wants to learn about the U.S.!!!! Get to know her while she is here. Here are some ideas: Does she want to see an English-spoken movie? Take her to a theater or rent a video. Does she surf? Does she want to learn? How about music stores or department stores and malls? Even grocery stores? Does she like to read, and will she want to go to a bookstore? Take her to Hollister Co., American Eagle, and/or A&F. How about a restaurant, and have her eat some American food that is not common in France? Buy her an English-written classic book. Or even an English CD. In general, buy her a few souvenirs that will last a long time. This will help her keep the memories of you and her time in the U.S. Make sure the time she is here is all about her. Have her tell you what she wants to do or see. Let her guide you along. If she is not sure, name off a few activities that she may enjoy. And in return, simply ask her to enrich you on the popular culture of France and the area (of France) where she is from. (Ex: Manners, activities, food, restaurants, neighborhoods, etc. What are they like?) Ask her to compare certain things to back home.

Anything and everything American! But not just the big stuff, the "everyday" stuff. Disneyland is obvious. Also all the other touristy stuff around there -- Seaworld, etc. San Francisco! The various beaches -- Muscle/Malibu/Venice (she's seen them in the movies!). If you can afford it, and she's interested, professional sporting events -- especially a football game. If you can't afford pro, go to university games. Don't neglect your high school activities -- plays, athletics, concerts, etc. She will probably want to go to the movies and see them in English! Go to your favorite restaurants! Don't forget Taco Bell -- Europeans love the place! Hit the malls! Go on Rodeo Drive (even if you don't buy anything!) Don't forget museums -- especially quirky ones! They can be fun! Teach her to surf if you do that -- or take a few lessons with her! But what she will remember the most is making great friends and the "ordinary" every day activities you do together. EDIT: One thing -- if she is with you for a semester or year, she is NOT a guest and don't treat her like one! She is to be a member of your family! Also, if you are taking her someplace expensive, it's appropriate for her to pay for her own ticket/admission. Have a great time!

Disneyland, it should be fun Knott's Berry Farm Soak City at Knott's Laguna Beach or Newport Coast so she can see the beautiful beaches :) The Block at Orange, take her to the AMC theater there, it's really nice and they have great movies there too. There's also plenty of stores to shop (Forever 21 is my favorite) and there's plenty of different restaurants too. South Coast Plaza!!! There's PLENTY of fine restuarants and shopping centers there. Besides, the South Coast Mall is considered one of the best in the U.S. Also, the Ruby's restaurant is one of my favorites at South Coast Plaza but it is specifically located in Crystal Court (you can ask for directions if you don't really know how to get there). You should definitely take her there, it's very good and it's classic American food such as fine burgers, sandwiches, salads and much more and it has a classic American theme to it, like 50's retro and it's a fun atmosphere!

If you were a student in France, what sport would you play and why?

If you were a student in France, what sport would you play and why?
That's a question I have to answer in my Sport Project for French. I'm saying soccer, because it has a large variety of elite teams and is the most popular sport in the country. Can anyone give me any other reasons why? If the country provides a lot of fields or whatever etc. Thanks =]

1 :
play football (only usa call it soccer). you can also use the fact that a lot of french players are of black descent - this giving some of the poorer/ african french immigrant /descendant population some feeling of belonging etc etc.
2 :
Soccer is a good one for many reasons. (It's called calcio in Italy but everyone picks on the US calling it soccer!) It takes only a ball and a few friends so even the economically challenged can play; there are soccer (football) fields in almost every park in France; it is the number one sport in France; it has been the most popular sport for many generations so everyone and their grandparents know all of the rules and how to play. If a player is exceptional, they could make good money playing for a professional team and even represent France in the World Cup.

It is soccer. When I was 5 and lived in Paris, the whole courtyard was filled with soccer playing kids. It was fun to remember. It also provides many fields in France and everyone in Paris is playing soccer, even in parks or on the street, against a wall of with makeshift walls. Yes, it is soccer. Good luck on your Sport project.
4 :
football or 'who can surrender quickest'
5 :
Yes, it would definitely be football (soccer for all you yanks!). Its popular and a beautiful sport.

A visa to go to France is nowhere as much as that; however you have to pay for your travel there, your accommodation, your upkeep and personal expenses, and life in Paris is very expensive. All the information for potential students about visas, residence permits, applications, and a rough guide as to how much it will cost you is given on the Campus France website through which all students have to apply for a visa. You can check all the details for yourself: http://www.campusfrance.org/ Good luck!
