frmichelin1-9, Exercise 1: Three careful sentences Model answer (check each date and source): 1. "In 1933 Eugénie Brazier held three stars at each of her two restaurants near Lyon, according to histories of the guide (check)." Careful because: it gives a year, a source type and the limit "according to". 2. "Anne-Sophie Pic's restaurant in Valence was awarded three stars in 2007, which made her the only woman to lead a three-star restaurant in France at that time (check)." Careful because: it adds the country, the date and the level, which a bare "first woman" would leave out. Check whether the second half is true for 2007. 3. "Published counts have shown women as a minority of starred head chefs, though the figures depend on the year and on how the count is made (check)." Careful because: it makes no claim of a number and points to the method. Weak versions to avoid: "Women have never succeeded in fine dining" (false, given the examples), and "Women are now equal in the guide" (no evidence given). Care: "first" claims fail when the country, the date or the level is dropped.
