The year brought stories of great tragedy both in the United States and the world. The gulf oil spill put New Orleans through devastation it had not seen since the hurricane. In Haiti, a massive earthquake made an already bad situation for those who live there even worse.

在行将过去的这一年里，美国和整个世界都上演着一幕幕惊天动地的悲剧。墨西哥湾原油泄漏事件使新奥尔良面临着那场毁灭性的飓风之后从未经受过的最恐怖的灾难。海地地震使得那里原本就艰难的生存状况更加雪上加霜。让镜头的闪烁带领心灵和眼睛去见证2010吧。

A woman cries over the dead body of her child wapped in blankets amid the rubble of landslide devastation in Zhouqu on August 11, 2010 in northwest China's Gansu province. Hopes of finding survivors of China's worst mudslides in decades is fading as the death toll topped 700, with more than 1,000 people still missing under an avalanche of rock and sludge.
