听力原文： President Bush has strongly denounced photos showing the humiliating treatment of some prisoners by American soldiers in Iraq. The president told Arabic language television the actions are abhorrent and Americans are just as appalled about the incident as Iraqis.

The Bush administration spent another day Wednesday trying to contain the damage caused by the abuse, which the Army said may not have been an isolated incident. "It's a matter that reflects badly on my country," he said.

President Bush, appearing on the Dubai-based al-Arabiya television, expressing sorrow, but no apology, for the photographs of naked Iraqi prisoners being forced to simulate sex acts as smiling American soldiers looked on. "The practices that took place in that prison are abhorrent and they don't represent America," he said.

听力原文： President Bush has apologized for U. S. soldiers who abused prisoners in Iraq. The apology came during a meeting with Jordan's King Abdullah.

President Bush says he told King Abdullah that those responsible for the wrongdoing will be brought to justice, and their actions do not represent American values.
