<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial unicode ms" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Le
samedi matin vers onze heures, j’adore <b>retrouver </b>mes amies pour visiter les
magasins et <b>les boutiques </b>de <b>notre centre-ville</b>. On réfl échit
bien <b>avant de </b>choisir <b>les courses</b>: parfois, on a besoin de provisions
pour le dîner de samedi soir. Ou bien, c’est bientôt <b>les Fêtes </b>et nous
avons le plaisi de choisir <b>des cadeaux </b>pour <b>nos proches</b>, et
naturellement pour <b>nousmêmes</b>!</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial unicode ms" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Les
grands magasins et les hypermarchés sont bien, mais nous préférons fréquenter les
petits commerces qui sont encore <b>tenus </b>par une <b>seule</b> famille:
pour les aliments, il y a la boulangerie, le marchand de fruits de légumes et
la boucherie, et pour <b>les autres achats</b>, il y a par exemple: la librairie-papeterie,
la cordonnerie, la droguerie, etc. <b>En fi n de matinee</b> nous passons à
l’agence de voyages pour <b>feuilleter </b>des brochures et rêver de nos
prochaines vacances. À midi et demi, dans notre restaurant favori, le serveur
nous demande: « Vous <b>êtes prêtes à commander</b>? » Et nous <b>lui </b>demandons
de recommender <b>quelque chose de bon</b>. Nous choisissons <b>une bisque de
homard</b>,</span></div>
