Integrated Course Book 4 Unit 5
Listen to the recording two or three times and then think over the following questions:
1. Why do some people tend to be heartless and cruel? Were they born that way or did circumstances harden them?2. Do some people care too much for people in general and forget the needs of their closest friends? 3. What is the singer complaining about?4. Does the song give you any idea of what the stories in this unit will be about?
?Is it easy to be hard, easy to be cold towards others? The singer of the song you are about to hear thinks that too many people are cruel and have no feelings. His particular target is those who claim to care about large causes, the poor and underprivileged, at the same time as they are ready to ignore the needs of their friends. From the song, it sounds as if he has one particular friend in mind, a friend -- perhaps a girl? -- who seems to care more for social causes than she does for him. But whatever the reason, he complains that too many people find it all too easy to be cold, easy to say no. Listen and see whether you agree with him or not.
