Reading List by Rochelle Dsouza - Year 2022 Week August 22nd, 2022

Hello everyone!  With three months to CAT, one thing you can't afford to do is not read. Through the reading list, I hope to share some articles that can help you build your reading habit and or give you content to read which may help you for your exams. All competitive exams have comprehension passages and the best way to work on your comprehension is to challenge it with articles from diverse areas. Also sharing a section on short stories as an incentive to those who read throughthe week and recommending a blog article on goals. Here are this week’s 25 articles. https://literaryreview.co.uk/from-mont-blanc-to-magaluf https://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/afghanistan-us-failure-set-stage-for-russia-invasion-ukraine-by-carl-bildt-2022-08?barrier=accesspaylog https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/aug/21/treating-refugees-like-waste-people-is-abhorrent-wherever-they-end-up https://www.wsj.com/articles/how-chinas-propaganda-influences-the-west-state-media-cable-censors
