			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>French listening exercise: instructions</h2>
<p>1. Watch the video a first time.<br />
2. Then watch the video a second time by trying to complete the following text.<br />
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/NwYj3NZmqJA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Et toujours dans le domaine de ________________, les viticulteurs multiplient les initiatives pour accroître leur vente avec notamment des visites proposées aux touristes et ils sont de plus en plus nombreux à venir découvrir les secrets de _______________ du vin et même à participer à une journée de vendanges. Un exemple en Anjou, avec Emmanuelle Chartois et Raymond Felden.</p>
<p>Cela commence par une journée de vacances. Petit déjeuner face aux vignes, dans la chambre __________ où ils ont passé la nuit, sauf que le soleil se lève à peine et que ces vacanciers-là ont du pain sur la planche !<br />
-	Les forces sont prises pour attaquer le travail.<br />
-	On ne sait pas encore ce qui nous attend. On va voir.<br />
-	Vous, ce matin, c’est le coteau du Layon, juste derrière<br />
-	On a bien compris !<br />
-	Juste là-haut.</p>
<p>Ces deux couples d’amis ont choisi la formule «Vendanges »</p>
<p>-	Votre prénom c’est ?<br />
-	Christine<br />
-	Christine, vous vous mettez avec Michel<br />
-	D’accord</p>
<p>Un forfait tout compris, hébergement plus initiation à la _____________, la journée commence dans les rangs.</p>
<p>-	Là, j’essaie de dégager les _____________ du fil de fer, ce n’est pas trop évident. C’est pas si facile que ça en fait !<br />
Face à chaque novice, un vendangeur expérimenté. Il faut tenir le rythme.</p>
<p>-	Alors, il avance aussi vite que vous ?<br />
-	Très bien, je m’en plains pas de mon coéquipier, ah non ! C’est un bon _____________. Il m’a pas coupé les doigts.<br />
-	 Ils ne sont pas là pour la _______________. Ils sont là surtout pour découvrir, et puis ils ont tellement un sourire quand ils viennent ici, que ça nous encourage à leur montrer de belles choses.<br />
Du pressoir à la ___________, le vigneron répond à toutes les questions pour lui, qui ne vend qu’aux particuliers, cette formule touristique est aussi un moyen de fidéliser une nouvelle _____________.</p>
<p>-	Je rappelle que vous voyez le vin qui fermente.<br />
On sent qu’ils sont curieux. On leur apprend des choses, ça se voit et puis en plus, c’est un très bon moyen de ______________ des vins d’Anjou et des coteaux Layon.</p>
<p>-	Pour nous c’est super, sur un ___________ comme ça, où il y a de petites parcelles, je pensais pas que d’un coteau à l’autre, il y avait autant de différences, au niveau du vin, quoi ! C’est vrai que c’est constructif.<br />
Il ne reste plus qu’à goûter tous ces vins. Eux, rapporteront quelques ____________ de celui qu’ils ont un peu contribué à fabriquer.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At this time of the year, you are probably checking how to make the most of your holidays in France.<br />
We have gathered here 5 tips before your travel to France.</p>
<p><strong>1. Speaking</strong><br />
As you know, French people always appreciate when you make the effort to speak a bit of French.<br />
What about taking some <a title="French conversation lessons" href="http://www.live-french.net/en/skype.php/2007/12/14/10-french-conversation">French conversation lessons</a> before your trip to help you brush up your French? It is recommended to choose an <a title="online French tutor" href="http://www.live-french.net/en/skype.php/2007/12/17/6-french-lessons-our-teachers">online French tutor</a> to learn with before your trip. Via Skype or by phone, a dedicated French tutor is probably the most convenient and economical solution.</p>
<p><strong>2. Eating</strong><br />
France is famous for its cuisine, cheeses and wines. Check the Michelin guide so that you don&#8217;t miss out on the best French restaurants. For some, you will need to book a while in advance, be careful!</p>
<p><strong>3. Traveling</strong><br />
France is beautiful country. You might want to travel by train (TGV), or to rent a car if you prefer to go to small villages that are not easily accessible by train. Check your map to see what is the best option for you.</p>
<p><strong>4. Cultural sites</strong><br />
There&#8217;s no lack of museums in France. They are definitely part of the landscape. If you&#8217;re in Paris for just a few days, you might not want to spend a full day to visit the Louvre (even though you would probably find it worthwhile), but you can find some smaller ones, although not as famous but still with magnificent collections of art.</p>
<p><strong>5. The Province</strong><br />
As nice as Paris and the other major cities are the charm and history of the country areas with their castles, small villages, picturesque landscapes and old world sensibilities is still the heart of the country and not to be missed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For Live-French.net&#8217;s students, relocation to a French speaking country is often the reason why they decide to brush up their French. Moving to France, Belgium or Switzerland has to be prepared. Being able to speak French is a must for most of them.</p>
<h2>Relocating to France?</h2>
<p>The advantage of learning French with Live-French.net is that you can start preparing for your life in France as soon as you know you&#8217;re going to move. As a regular lesson or as an intensive course before the departure, Live-French.net offers a flexible way to learn French efficiently.</p>
<p>Another good point is that you can continue to learn French with your teacher after you have moved. You are probably busy already and don&#8217;t need to find another language school to go to. Our virtual French language school follows you wherever you are!</p>
