听力原文:The coordinated attacks Thursday by a suicide car bomber and another man wearing a vest with explosives occurred one day after a horrific blast at a poor east Baghdad neighborhood that killed 18 children and teenagers who had swarmed around a U.S. Humvee to get candy and toys.
Up to 27 people died in the Wednesday blast-including one American soldier. The bomber drove straight into the crowd of children.
The suicide bombing Wednesday stunned the largely Shiite neighborhood. Terrified parents rushed outdoors after the bombing to find the bloodied, mangled bodies of their children scattered along the street.
Twelve of the dead were 13 years or younger and six were between 14 and 17, police Lt. Mohammed Jassim Jabr said.
A1 Qaeda in Iraq denied any involvement in the bombing, issuing a statement that said the group is "not in the least responsible" for the attack.
The statement's authenticity could not be verified. But it suggests the militant group is aware of the backlash the death of so many children could generate, even among Iraqis who oppose the presence of U.S.-led forces.
One woman said of the attack, "This tarnishes the image of the true resistance."

B.Wednesday.
C.Thursday.
D.Saturday.

听力原文: Washington
The United States has blocked a UN Security Council statement that was drafted by Arab nations and aimed at putting pressure on Israel to stop military strikes on Palestinian targets. Washington does not have formal veto power when it comes to council statements. But it is able to block the draft single-handedly because council rules require that statements be unanimous and supported by all 15 of its members. Violence and bloodshed in Palestine is getting more serious during the past several months, and the Israeli military is criticized for over-reacting to protests by Palestinian people, causing serious casualties of civilians.
London
Three of the main suspects in a failed attempt to bomb the London transit system made a court appearance in London Monday. Ibrahim, 27, and Mohammed, 23, were charged Sunday. Police suspect Ibrahim of trying to blow up a bus and accuse Mohammed of attempting to bomb a train in the Oval subway station on July 21-one of three trains that were targeted two weeks after similar bombings killed 56 people. They face a maximum sentence of life imprisonment on each charge, if convicted. Ibrahim and Mohammed were arrested in a police raid on a public housing estate in west London on July 29, eight days after knapsack bombs on three trains and the bus failed to detonate.

An old tradition in China is changing. In some areas of China, some people often eat wild animals, and this tradition can be traced back a long time ago. However, such a tradition is changing today as most city dwellers interviewed by the latest survey on wild animal consumption said that they have gone off the creatures. Co-sponsored by the China Wildlife Conservation Association and its partner Wild Aid, a non-governmental organization from the United States, the survey found that 54 percent of urban interviewees chose "potential health risks" as the reason for giving up the wild dishes.

A member's quota determines its maximum financial commitment to the IMF and its voting power. Recently, the Board of Governors of the IMF adopted a resolution on quota and voice reform. in the IMF.

A German church association and a Chinese foundation have jointly launched a five-million-Yuan program to alleviate iodine deficiency disorders in northwest China. The program is expected to benefit 144,000 newborn babies and women of child-bearing age in eight counties and cities in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Prefecture of Gansu Province.
