She bas just become motherless. A few minutes ago, a big bombing(轰炸) happened near her home in the south of Iraq(伊拉克).Every day we see pictures like this on our televisions. We see young Iraqi children asking for food and water from American and British soldiers as they move through towns and dries towards the capital, Baghdad. We see these children following grown-ups, carrying bags of things almost the same size as their small bodies as they quickly left their homes in Baghdad.All this shows that some of the young lives have been turned upside down by the war.And they show the terrible price being paid by Iraqi children.In southern parts of the country, like the second largest city, Basra, the UN is working to repair the damage(损失) caused by the war. "We are working to provide clean water and get the electrical power to work again," said Geoffrey Keele, a UN spokesman.But little else can be done, in Baghdad, parents give their children sleeping pills to try.and let them escape the sound of bombing. And all the schools are closed. Some diseases break out among the children, sometimes leading to death.Nearly 50% of the Iraqi population, which is over 20 million, is under 15 years old.

Later they handed in their reports to the International Olympic Committee(IOC,国际奥林匹克委员会). Nine cities hoped that they would have the honour. On May 18,2004, after the careful checking of each report, the IOC chose five cities: Paris, London, Moscow, Madrid(马德里) and New York City to be the possible cities to hold the 2012 Olympic Games.Since February, the IOC has visited these five cities, Moscow being the last; to hear each city's report as to how they will host the Games.Want to know the result? Some people guess that Paris will be the winner. London and New York could only show plans for gyms to be built for the Games, but Paris showed off their well-run gym that was built for the 1998 Soccer World Cup.
