阅读理解。 Many countries such as Iraq, Uganda, Guatemala, and many others have been known to abduct (诱拐) children and force them to serve in the army. The reason is that the enemy isn't likely to suspect children as a real threat. Many non-government organizations are also known to abduct and force children into beingchild soldiers. Below we have some quotes from former child soldiers. "The army was a nightmare. We suffered greatly from the cruel treatment we received. We were oftenbeaten, mostly for no reason at all, just to keep us in a state of terror. I still have a scar on my lip and sharp pains in my stomach from being violently kicked by the older soldiers. The food was not enough, and they made us walk with heavy loads, much too heavy for our small bodies. They forced me to learn how to fight the enemy." — Emilio, 14 They gave me pills that made me crazy. When the craziness got in my head, I beat people on their heads and hurt them until they bled. When the craziness got out of my head, I felt guilty. If I remembered the person,I went to them and apologized. If they did not accept my apology, I felt bad. — Michael, 13 As seen in the quotes, the army is not very friendly toward children. Forced to act like s, kill like s, and carry an 's load, these children sometimes die from exhaustion (筋疲力尽). Below are somefacts about child soldiers.
