Bertrand: Je ________ les victimes des catastrophes naturelles.
In the sentence, the blank is asking for the correct verb form to complete the statement. To determine the correct verb form, we need to consider the subject "Je" (meaning "I") and the context of the sentence, which is about helping the victims of natural disasters.
One verb that is commonly used to express helping or assisting someone is "aider" in French. In this case, we need to conjugate the verb "aider" to match the subject "Je."
When conjugating "aider" for the subject "Je," we remove the "-er" ending and add "-e" to the verb stem. So the correct form is "aide."
Putting it all together, the correct answer is:
Bertrand: Je aide les victimes des catastrophes naturelles.
This translates to:
Bertrand: I help the victims of natural disasters.
Remember, when conjugating verbs in French, it is important to consider the subject and apply the appropriate verb form.
