هَذِهِ الْبِنَايَةُ الْجَدِيدَة مَكْتَبَةُ الْجَامِعَة، هِيَ قَرِيبَةٌ مِنْ بِنَايَةِ الْمَكْتَب، وَبَعِيدَةٌ عَنْ بَابِ الْجَامِعَة.

أَذْهَبُ إِلَى هَذِهِ الْمَكْتَبَة دَائِمًا. لَسْتُ فِيهَا الْآن، أَنَا فِي الصَّفّ.

عِنْدِي اِمْتِحَان. اللَّه! لَيْسَ عِنْدِي قَلَم، أَنَا زَعْلَان.

آه، عَلَى الْمَكْتَب قَلَمٌ قَدِيم، اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّه.

اَلْاِمْتِحَانُ صَعْبٌ قَلِيلًا، أَنَا تَعْبَان وَجَوْعَان. صَاحِبِي مُحَمَّد لَيْسَ فِي الصَّفّ، هُوَ مَرِيض، وَهُوَ سَعِيد.

Translation

This new building is the university library. It is near the office building and far from the university gate.

I always go to this library. I am not there now; I am in the classroom.

I have an exam. Oh! I have no pen, and I am upset.

Ah, there is an old pen on the desk, praise be to God.

The exam is a little difficult. I am tired and hungry. My friend Muhammad is not in class; he is sick, and he is happy.
