YEMEN

Yemen was officially declared a unified Republican in 1990, but now it's a country divided. Before conflict in Yemen broke out, 10 million people were going hungry every day. That number has now reached almost 12 million; nearly half the population does not have enough to eat.

WITCHES 

Reading 1

www.livescience.com

Witches are said to have magical powers. They often use these magical powers to cast spells over others. In early modern times, it was common to blame witches for bad luck and misfortune. “Witch trials”, events where local citizens were accused of practicing witchcraft and put on trial before the community, were held in towns across Europe and the early United States. Currently, we imagine witches as wearing pointy hats and black, ragged robes, and spending their time riding broomsticks, keeping black cats as pets, and concocting magic potions over large cauldrons.
