Q10. Lifestyles

J’habite à Tombouctou au Mali. Comme dans beaucoup

de pays en Afrique, il y a beaucoup de pauvreté chez
nous. Il pleut rarement, donc il est difficile de cultivar les
fruits et les légumes dont nous avons besoin. Mais
heureusement ça commence à changer. Au collège on
a de la chance, car on vient de recevoir quelques
ordinateurs d’un lycée en France et d’une entreprise
britannique. C’est génial, parce que je peux surfer sur
Internet. Ma mère m’a aussi acheté un portable et avec,
j’envoie tout le temps des textos à mes copines et
j’écoute de la musique. J’espère apprendre comment
envoyer des photos.
Moi, j’habite dans l’est, près de Besançon. Mon village

est tranquille et un peu isolé mais je l’aime parce que je
connais tout le monde et j’ai plein de copains pas trop
loin de chez moi. Ça fait deux ans que j’ai un ordinateur,
mais je l’utilise seulement pour participer aux forums où
je me suis fait de nouveaux amis. J’adore faire des
randonnées et, comme on est près des montagnes, je
peux faire des promenades à pied ou à cheval quand je
veux, et faire du ski en hiver. C’est cool!
Choose four sentences which are true.

Write the correct letters in the boxes.
A Aliyah thinks that Mali is different from lots of other countries in Africa.
B Aliyah thinks that life is getting better in her country.
C Other countries are helping Mali to have access to new technology.
D Aliyah has sent photos to her friends on her mobile.
E Didier feels isolated where he lives.
F Didier has no friends apart from those he has met in chat rooms.
G Didier is less experienced with technology than Aliyah.
H Didier has lots of interests.
