Appendix IKey to Exercises Unit5Part I PreReading TaskScript for the recording: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 plains 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.Easy to be Hard■ ■Three Dog NightHow can people be so heartless How can people be so cruel Easy to be hard, easy to be colaHow can people have no feelings How can they ignore their friends Easy to be proud, easy to say noEspecially people who care about strangers Who care about evil and social injustice Do you only care about bleeding crowd How about a needing friend, I need a friendAppendix 1115How can people be so heartless You know I39。m hung up on you Easy to he proud, easy to say noEspecially people who care about strangersWho care about evil and social injusticeDo you only care about bleeding crowdHow about a needing friend, we all need a friendHow can people he so heartlessHow can people he so cruelEasy to he proud, easy to say noEasy to he cold, easy to say noCome on, easy to give in, easy to say noEasy to he cold, easy to say noMuch too easy to say noPart II Text AText OrganizationPartsParagraphsMain IdeasPart OnePara 1It is no easy job to judge people, for they aren39。t always what they appear to be.Part TwoParas 23Kind and gentle, Edward Burton, a wealthy merchant, appeared as if he could not bear to hurt a fly.Part ThreeParas 451As it turned out, Burton was coldblooded enough to send a friend to certain death.116 Appendix I2.SectionsParagraphsMainly aboutSection OneParas 416What Edward knew about LennySection TwoParas 1731How Edward responded to Lenny39。s requestSection ThreeParas 3251How Edward, a kind gentleman, handled a friend in desperate need of helpVocabularyl35791113151)3)5)7) 3i. l.4.In a way elderly vacancy current transparent spicyIn a wayelderlyvacancycurrenttransparentspicyIn a wayelderlyvacancycurrenttransparentspicymitted instinct turned up brought back driving at touch on/upon2) clapping4) in accordance with6) funks8) in good condition 10) rub 12) hitherto 14) with (a) very bad grace2) stuck to4) settled down6) put (them) away8) bear (me) out1) She has a very weak constitution — she may not be able to survive the operation.2) I was taken aback by the insurance pany39。s rejection of my claim.3) It was something of a surprise when we ran into each other in a place like that.4) My hair needs trimming/to be trimmed — it39。s getting too long.5) Appearances are often deceptive.1) Mr. Smith used to be a successful retailer in our munity.
