Part I Pre-Reading Task

Script for the recording:

The song you are about to hear is all about taking a break from city life, escaping from the crowds,

rinding a quiet place, far from trie human race.

For those of us who live in cities, getting out in the country can provide a welcome break, letting us recharge our batteries. Out in the country, as the song says, we can find a place to

stand alone and take tack somethin' worth remembering.

The countryside also promises escape from the pollution of the city, somewhere to get some decent air to breathe. The countryside also offers somewhere where the sun is not hidden by smog, making it seem no more than

a bright spot in the nighttime.

So, just remember, as the song advises, whenever you

need a bit or room to

move When life b

ecomes too fast

66 -Appendix I^

you can always find relief at last

Out in the country.

Here is the song:
