The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of teaching reading using cloze-test activities on Arabic learners’ reading ability and their attitude toward Arabic reading learning. The subjects for this study were divided into two groups: an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group read Arabic texts using a cloze-test which involved completing an Open Ended Cloze-test and Ctest. The control group read Arabic texts using a traditional grammar-translation method. To examine their improvement of Arabic reading ability, learners took Arabic ability test before and after the experiment. To examine the learners’ attitude toward Arabic reading learning were asked to fill out a questionnaire before and after the experiment. The results of this study were as follows: First, using the cloze-test, especially the C-test technique was found to be effective in improving learners’ Arabic reading ability. Second, using the cloze-test improved learners’ Arabic reading ability at all levels for intermediate level learners. The most significant difference was seen among the high proficiency learners using the cloze-test technique. Third, using the cloze-test had a positive influence on learners’ attitude toward Arabic reading learning.
