Shopping
Retailing is the business of selling products to the general public. Most retailers sell from shops or stores. Nowadays, countries have large retail chains. In the CR it is e.g. . Kaufland, Billa, Albert, Hypernova... Their outlets are often in shopping centres where there are many large stores under one roof. Large retailers have also well-known hypermarkets or superstores which are usually situated all around the countries. Hypermarkets are over 30 000 square meters large and superstores under 30 000 square meters.
Department stores
Department stores are large shops, which sell a wide variety of products. They are large buildings usually several stores high. They have lots of departments (foodstaff, shoes, restaurant, bookshop...) all under one roof. Harrods is the best known department store in London. In Prague we have for example Kotva or Bílá labuť.
Let‘s describe the standard design of stores. The main entrance is usually on the left because people have a natural reflex to move to the right. Inside the entrance there are usually fruits and vegetables. It seems to be important for the store, because it gives the store a healthy image. The meat counter is often at the back of the store. There are 2 reasons for this: the first is that meat needs a storage and preparation area. The other is that shoppers come to buy it regularly and on their way they will see many other products.
Basic products are rarely positioned next to each other. For example, the coffee is in the first aisle but sugar is in the fourth aisle near the checkout. The leader known brands are at the top of shelf. We can notice that at the eye-level there are always more famous brands of products because buyers can notice them easily. Research has shown that these products have the highest sales.
As these stores are so big, they are able to lower the prices quite a lot and to make them cheaper than smaller shops.

Paying
We have different ways of paying for goods. Most often people pay in cash. Credit cards are also widely accepted. People usually pay by a credit card when they have a big purchase. We also pay in instalments when we want to buy for example TVs or cars. Cash on delivery is often used when we order something on the Internet. And of course we mustn’t forget paying by a cheque.

Qui veut etre en plaine forme, fait le sport. Le sport est une chose individuelle - chacun doit savoir s'il veut le pratiquer et combien de temps (par une certaine periode) veut-il consacrer au sport.

Un Français sur trois pratique un sport individuel. Pour garder la forme on pratique le jogging, la gymnastique, la relaxation, l aérobic, la natation ou faire du vélo.
L évenement sportif français sans doute le plus connu a l' étranger est le Tour de France cycliste. Le Tour de France qu 'on appelle aussi la Grande Boucle, attire beaucoup de spectateurs. Cette course est organisée au mois de juillet, a une vingtaine d'étapes et passe a travers la France. Elle est longue de 3000 kilometres et se termine sur les Champs-Elysées. A l' hiver, on patine ou on va a la montagne pour faire du ski.

Les sports d' équipe qui attirent toujours les Français sont: le football, le handball, le volley-ball, le rogby, le tennis.
Parmi tous les sports d' équipe le football vient en premier. Les meilleures équipes professionnelles sont Paris St Germain, Lens (un des joueurs de cette équipe est notre V. Šmicer), l' Olympique de Marseille, St Etienne, Bordeaux, Monaco et Nantes. Quand deux de ces équipes se rencontrent, les spectateurs remplissent les stades pour assister a un grand match. Le football est tres populaire en France. La finale de la Coupe de France a lieu en mai, traditionnellement en présence du Président de la République. La France confirme ses qualités de football a la Coupe du monde en France. La France a déja devenu le champion du monde et des joueurs français les héros nationaux.
