All of them could.
In modern times, the government of France has never restricted the right of the people to read.
France achieved near-universal literacy by the early 21st century, with literacy rates exceeding 99%. Public education initiatives have played a key role in promoting literacy, ensuring that nearly all adults could read in the years 2000, 2001, 2002, and 2013. Therefore, most people in France could read during these years.
