今天CCTV新闻的《社会记录》采用了一位名叫依莲娜(elena)的自由新闻人，在切尔诺贝利考察时拍下的相片和影像资料。看到曾经是切尔诺贝利最现代最适合人居住的普里皮阿及，如今变成一座废弃二十年的鬼城，让人震撼不已。

“在1986年的核事故后，整个切尔诺贝利留下了七十六座无人居住的城市乡村和小镇，三百二十万人遭受了核污染的直接侵袭，而更多的人将永久地生活在灾难带来的心理创伤中。

当年参加清理的六十五万招募人员中，如今健康生活着的只有十分之一。

据专家估计，切尔诺贝利地区的核污染，下降到安全水平，要等到九百年以后……”

美国的一支叫”Huns and Dr. Beeker”的乐队写了一首关于切尔诺贝利的歌，叫《Ghost Town》，并把这首歌作为一个特别的礼物送给了依莲娜。大家可以去依莲娜的网站看她的摩托日记。

Ghost Town

For the victims of Chernobyl

there was no way they could have known that morning
that they awoke upon a fateful day
the killer wind came down without a warning
and no one had the chance to get away

the firemen were brave they fought with honor
but the blaze was more than it appeared to be
and one by one they fell beside their comrades
the victims of a foe they could not see

Mama where are you - Papa where did you go
and where are all the children who used to play here
only heaven knows

what they saw defied all explanation
someone said the trees were glowing red
they say the light came from the radiation
but maybe it’s the spirits of the dead

gone the homes the gardens and the playgrounds
gone the souls who made their livings here
they say this place will always be a ghost town
it will be for at least six hundred years
