The top appeals court in Egypt overturned life sentences against former Egyptian President Mohammad Morsi and officials of the Muslim Brotherhood. The court cancelled the second of two life sentences against the former president. A death sentence against Morsi had been overturned by the same court a week before in the middle of November. (3)The overturned charges include accusations of spying for the militant group Hamas.
Abdel Moneim Abdel Maksoud is a lawyer for the Muslim Brotherhood. The group has been outlawed in Egypt. He told the French news agency AFP he believes the court’s decision was fair because, in his words, “the (first) verdict was full of legal flaws”. The former president and his associates will be retried in the two cases that were overturned. Morsi must still serve a 20-year sentence for his part in the detention and torture of protestors outside the presidential palace in 2012. Morsi became Egypt’s first democratically elected president in 2012. (4)But, he was arrested after being ousted by the Egyptian military in 2013. Former Defense Minister Abdel Fattah Al Sisi then took power.  
Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard.

4.When was former Egyptian President arrested?

选项 A、Accusations of betraying his country.
B、Accusations of embezzling.
