Today's reading is from excerpts of a "Raseef22" article commemorating ten years since the Egyptian revolution overthrew then-president Hosni Mubarak. Former participants, and family members of people who lost their lives in the protests, answer the question: What would you do if we went ten years back in time?



Not much grammar today, but a focus on some of the text's vocab that deals with people's feelings, their state of mind and their reactions to the situation around them. I explain these in more detail after the reading. An overview, with the English equivalents, is below.



As you may have noticed, the texts are now presented in a pdf viewer, with a download link below them. I hope you find this useful!



Finally, I've slowed down my reading again this time as I think my speed went a bit out of control last time :D
