Dans la courbe alluviale, le nouveau quartier a poussé sur la friche récente d’un quartier industrieux et populaire, désertifié au tournant des années 1970. S’y juxtaposent des îlots bas de logements, des équipements publics et de proximité, des édifices tertiaires. Le long de la Garonne, une large bande sera aménagée en voies paysagées et parc des berges. Le nouveau jardin, dont le chantier a débuté en 2003, investit un grand rectangle qui descend en pente douce vers le fleuve. Le programme défini par le conservateur et transcrit par la paysagiste est original : démontrer l’inventivité des cultures agronomiques dans le monde – dimension ethnobotanique –, et montrer la diversité des milieux naturels de la région du Grand Bassin Aquitain, dimension écologique. | Translation - English
On the alluvial curve, the new quarter has grown from the recent wasteland of an industrial working-class district, deserted at the turning point of the 1970s. Juxtaposed are small low-lying housing blocks, public facilities and there are service sector buildings nearby. A large strip along the Garonne is being developed to contain two landscaped roads and a riverside park. The work on site for this new garden began in 2003. It occupies a large rectangle which slopes gently down towards the river. This development defined by the conservationist and translated by the landscape architect is original. It shows the inventiveness of agronomic farming throughout the world – an enthnobotanic dimension – and the diversity of the natural environments of the Larger Aquitaine Basin region – an ecological dimension. | | French to English: Computing | Source text - French
A l'aide de PowerPoint, vous pouvez créer un diagramme de Venn et l'animer ensuite avec des effets prédéfinis. Mais pour obtenir un résultat saisissant, personnalisez l'animation de chaque élément du diagramme !
PowerPoint dispose par défaut d'une bibliothèque d'éléments graphiques et de diagrammes à insérer directement dans votre présentation. En particulier, vous pouvez très facilement concevoir un diagramme de Venn représentant l'inclusion de plusieurs ensembles. Notez qu’il serait difficile de réaliser cette figure avec les outils de dessin standards. De plus, chaque ensemble sera automatiquement colorié avec l'assistant de PowerPoint. Si l'ajout de tels diagrammes est intuitif, vous devrez toutefois prendre le temps d'animer le résultat. Pour les diagrammes de cinq ensembles, par exemple, il vaut mieux afficher progressivement l'information, plutôt que de la présenter en une seule fois.

You can create a Venn diagram using PowerPoint and then animate it with predefined effects. However, to get a striking result, why not animate each part of the diagram?
By default, PowerPoint has a library of graphics and diagrams, which you can insert directly into your presentation. It is particularly easy to design a Venn diagram representing several shapes. It is worth noting that it would be difficult to produce this shape with ordinary drawing tools. In addition, each shape is automatically coloured with the PowerPoint wizard. Although the addition of such diagrams is intuitive, it is worth taking the time to animate the result. For diagrams with five shapes, for example, it is a good idea to display the information progressively, rather than presenting it all at once.
