script to convert words into links

hi,

i need some help.
i have to write a unix shell script that opens a file with a list of words and prints another file with a list of links.
something like this:

Input:

FILE 1:
Red
Green
Blue

Output:

FILE2:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Red
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Green

NAME
update-cracklib - Regenerate cracklib dictionary SYNOPSIS
update-cracklib DESCRIPTION
update-cracklib builds a compressed and accumulated version of wordlists stored in the directories given in cracklib's configuration file /etc/cracklib/cracklib.conf. Programs using cracklib2 need this database to be of any use. By default this script is called by cron every day. RESULT
update-cracklib prints out two numbers: the number of words read from the ASCII dictionaries and the number of words eventually written into the cracklib database; if no error occurred, these should be equal. 0 is returned on success, otherwise an error message is printed to standard error and -1 is returned. FILES
/etc/cracklib/cracklib.conf shell script that sets cracklib_dictpath_src which must be a space separated list of source dictionary files. SEE ALSO
cracklib(3), crack_mkdict(8) AUTHOR
