Marhaba! I am sure you were also as sad and disappointed to learn that the devastating war in Syria is affecting world class historical sites<\/a> in the Arab world. Among the many states and internal organizations to pay attention to such devastation, the U.S. State Department issued a statement regarding these devastating events. You can read it here and the title of the press statement is “Threats to Cultural Heritage in Iraq and Syria<\/a>.” In this post, I am sharing the answers to the reading comprehension exercise. I am confident you were able to answer the questions, and that you learned a few new things from this informative yet sad news article.<\/p>\n
