9. OCR specimen translation into T.L. 20 marks ◦ As elsewhere, music is hugely popular with youngsters in France. Two out of five of them consider it to be a kind of dependence bordering on addiction, while many others tend to underestimate the amount of leisure time spent on its consumption.

12. Edexcel specimen translation into T.L. 16 marks ◦ When the European Union adopted a policy of free movement of people, many citizens of poor countries started to move to France. It is difficult for an immigrant to fit into a new society unless he has friends or relatives there. Even if he speaks a little French, he will have to try to improve the language as soon as possible. Immigrants have been accused of taking the jobs of those who already live there.

AQA specimen translation into T.L. 10 marks ( used to be 20) ◦ If you have read the newspapers or if you have watched the news on television in recent months you will know that demonstrations have become more and more widespread in France recently.

Although we all have the right to protest against what we consider unjust, these demonstrations should be condemned because of the violent clashes they have caused between demonstrators and police. Most young people understand that brandishing banners, lighting candles and protesting in silence or in a peaceful way is acceptable; threatening the police is not.
