You can use -v (verbose) as well to see what's going on. It looks like
cp -rv dir1 dir2
cp -rv dir1 dir2

when you are copying a directory you have to add -r
so it will be like this
cp -r /var/www/html/ /var/web/html/
so it will be like this
cp -r /var/www/html/ /var/web/html/

we can use this commnad to
cp -r dir1 dir2
these dir1 and dir2 are directory name or u can use path here
-r means it is recursively copying. means it will copy the whole content to destination directory and it will ask u want to overwrite the content in the directory u can say no or yes , then it will skip that and will go to next dir copying
cp -r dir1 dir2
these dir1 and dir2 are directory name or u can use path here
-r means it is recursively copying. means it will copy the whole content to destination directory and it will ask u want to overwrite the content in the directory u can say no or yes , then it will skip that and will go to next dir copying

fyi: the -r argument indicates a recursive copy should be performed.
