Egyptian Lady

We heard that tomorrow morning we get to talk to a woman named Sarah in Egypt. Mr.Schick contacted her and we will be able to ask her some questions. There are problems in Egypt, but many are happy because their leader has resigned. His name is President Muhammad Hosni Sayyid Mubarak. He has been the president for around 30 years. He is the longest-serving ruler since Muhammad Ali Pasha. Now they will be electing a new president in the democratic way. We started to watch another video and I am going to take notes on a separate blog posts. 
For homework I need to think of seven questions to ask Sarah.


QUESTIONS:
1. Did you know people who got injured in the riots?
2. What do you think is going to happen to the country since Mubarak is gone?
3. Was it scary to live day to day not knowing what was going to happen to your country?
4. Did you get involved in any of the fights/riots?
5. What was it like having Mubarak as your leader for your whole life? 
6. Were you put in any life or death situations? 
7. Did you use your Facebook and Twitter to connect to other Egyptians to get information? 
8. How did you use Facebook and Twitter to connect to other Egyptians?
