  Even though he has been caught, the former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein is still causing trouble.His arrest   1   as many questions as it has answers.Top of the list is   2   should happen to Saddam now, closely   3   by calls for information from him about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction.

  He is currently being held by   4   troops at a secret place.The US says he will stand trial for his cruel actions during his years in   5  .This is likely to take place at a court   6   two weeks ago by the US-backed Iraqi Governing Council.The council's president Abdul Aziz al-hakim has warned Saddam could be executed(处死)if   7   guilty(有罪的)by the court.And the US   8   this.

  “I think he ought to receive the   9   punishment for what he has done to people, ” said US president George W.Bush,   10   directly stating that Saddam should be put to death.

  However, many   11  , including Saddam's long time enemy Iran, believe he would receive a fairer trial in an international court.  12   Britain, American's closest supporter, said it would not take part in any trial that could lead to Saddam's execution.

  The UN Security Council has yet to   13   its position clear.But UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan   14   say that“the UN does not support a death penalty.”

  Besides waiting for a trial of Saddam, the world wants to see   15   the US and Britain can find the   16   weapons they gave as the   17   for the war in Iraq.Asked if Saddam's capture(捕获)could   18   a breakthrough(突破)in the hunt for the weapons of mass destruction, British Prime Minister Tony Blair said, “  19   obviously that possibility there.But I think we should   20   what we're doing in Iraq.”

  Night after night, my mother came to my bed, even long after my childhood years.She would   1   down and push my long hair out of the way, and then kiss my forehead.

  I don't remember when it first started   2   me-her hands pushing my hair that way, for they felt work-worn and rough   3   my young skin.Finally, one night, I shouted out at her, “Don't do that any more-your hands are too rough!” she made no   4   and left quietly.

  Now, Mom no longer has Dad and lives   11  .One night on Thanksgiving Eve, I found myself   12   to her house to spend the night with her.As I slept in the bedroom of my youth, a familiar hand hesitantly ran across my face to   13   the hair from my forehead.Then a   14  , ever so gently, touched my forehead.I burst into tears.

  That night, I fell asleep with a new   19   for my gentle mother and her caring hands.And the guilt that I had carried around for so long was   20   to be found.
