Digital texts
The anthology includes a number of digital texts.

Please note that the following digital texts are no longer available, so we’ve removed the links:
- Lonely Planet video guides (Paris City Guide and Paris: Fine French Food
- Rick Steves' Walking Tour of the Louvre Museum [Rick Steves website, mp3]
This will not impact on how learners are assessed in the exam, as they are not required to understand and interpret the texts. In the exam, students will be assessed on their response to the written text from extracts from two texts in the anthology, and are not expected to make reference to any associated digital content.
Notes
