Qatar’s Emir visits the UK – level 1

09-12-2024 07:00

The Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim, visits the UK with his wife, Sheikha Jawaher.

King Charles, Prince William, and Princess Kate greet them. Kate is back at work after cancer treatment. Queen Camilla is getting better from a lung disease. She only joins the dinner later.

King Charles thanks Qatar for helping with peace. The country also works hard on using clean energy. The visit shows the friendship between the UK and Qatar. The two countries are already working together in energy and science.

Difficult words: cancer (a serious illness), treatment (medical care which a sick person gets), friendship (being close and kind to someone).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What are the areas in which the UK and Qatar are already working together, as mentioned in the text?
