Paper 2 Reading: Avoiding Common Pitfalls to Maximize Your Score

Definition

la compréhension écrite

reading comprehension, which is the focus of Paper 2

Definition

un piège

a trap or pitfall that can lead to losing marks

Understanding the Goal of Paper 2
1. Even students with a good level of French lose points because they fall into pièges évitables (avoidable traps).
2. The examiners want to see preuves de compréhension (proof of understanding) rather than just your ability to find matching words.
3. Knowing these pitfalls helps you manage your temps (time) and turn your reading skills into points.

Note

You do not need to understand every single word in the text.
Focus on the idées principales (main ideas) and specific details required by the questions.

Avoid Copying Whole Sentences Without Changes
1. Examiners expect your propre réponse (own answer), not a direct copy of the text.
2. If the sentence you copy does not fit the grammar of the question, you may lose marks.
3. You should reformuler (rephrase) the information using simple French.
