OMG… I don’t think you really need this (and even if, you can find all this on Wikipedia), but I like such tests…
1. You probably mean TGV (Train à Grande Vitesse). This the name of the train type, while the name of the trainservice is Eurostar.
2. London -> London St Pancras, Paris -> Paris Gare du Nord
3. They use naturally euro, which has replaced the French franc.
4. The full name of the subway is Chemin de Fer Métropolitain.
5. I suppose you mean the Seine.
6. Man, there are like 37, as far as I reckon, bridges on the Seine… But to name two… That could be eg. Pont Rouelle and Pont de Grenelle – both are not far from the Eiffel Tower, so is that “center” enough?
7. Bateau Mouche are “open excursion boats that provide visitors to Paris with a view of the city from along the river Seine.”
8. It’s the Notre Dame [de Paris].
9. You mean the Hunchback of Notre Dame?
If not, than I have no idea… Well, let’s not forget God, too… Except that He didn’t live there only in the Medieval times…
10. It’s the Sacré-Cœur Basilica, which is white…
11. The Bastille was a prison in Paris. The storming of Bastille (and later its demolition) in the beginning of the French Revolution became, in a way, a symbol of the Revolution and the fight against the king’s regime.
The crowd which took part in the storming was sure that political prisoners were held prison in the Bastille (and that was the main cause, apart from the need for weapons and gun powder, of the storming), but later it turned out that there were only a few prisoners there, none of which was a political prisoner…
12. The Eiffel Tower was constructed in the years 1887-1889. It was supposed to be the entrance arch for the Exposition Universelle, a World’s Fair marking the centennial celebration of the French Revolution. The Eiffel Tower is 300,65 m (without the spire) or 324 m (with the spire) high.
13. Mona Lisa was painted by Leonardo da Vinci and “lives” in the Musee du Louvre.
14. I suppose you mean Louis XIV… (But Louis XV and Loius XVI lived there, too)
15. The Petit Trianon is a small château located on the grounds of the Palace of Versailles in Versailles. Madame de Pompadour, the mistress of Louis XV, lived there.
16. The president of France is Nicolas Sarkozy. His wife (at the moment
) is Carla Bruni.
17. The anthem is called La Marseillaise.
