Bonjour,
Réponse :
1. This document is an online press article.
2. The story happened in Germany( in Hamburg-Bramfeld )
3. Thessa wanted to celebrate her birthday with a few friends.
4.
a.The police just let people enjoy themselves. Wrong ( « Eleven people
were temporarily detained » )
b. No one was hurt. Wrong. ( « one police officer was injured, dozens of
girls wearing flip-flops cut their feet on broken glass »
c. All the guests knew Thessa. Wrong ( « 15,000 people confirmed online
they would come to the party- without even knowing the girl »)
d. Thessa and her family did nothing to solve the problem. Wrong ( « When
Thessa’s parents found out, they made their daughter cancel the party,
informed police and hired a private security service to protect their home
on Friday night » )
e. The police couldn’t stop the party. Right ( « that did not keep the kids
from celebrating » )
f. Nobody knows who Thessa eventually celebrated her birthday with.
Wrong ( « celebrated quietly with her grandparents » )
g. Nobody knows where Thessa eventually celebrated her birthday. Right
(« undisclosed location » )
5. « The invitation quickly went viral » means the invitation reached
thousands of people.
6. The word that best sums up the police officer’s feeling is : amused
Justification : « Streiber summed up the night with a laugh »
7. « Thessa celebrating a birthday is not a crime » means : The crowd :
mocked the police.
Justification : « the crowd chanted again and again "Thessa, celebrating a
party is not a crime" in obvious relation to the massive police presence »
8. Next time she posts an invitation on a social network, Thessa should " mark her birthday invitation as private."
;)
