The Power of Words
Unit 5 The Power of Words
• Part one: Related Information (1)
– At any level of society, people who are good with words often have power or influence. The capacity to communicate is a valuable asset in any situation, whether you want to convince, console or encourage others. To be able to use the right words at the right time is both a skill and a gift. We often assume that to be a good communicator you have to be well educated when in fact people from all walks of life can communicate effectively. The most important aspect of the art of communicating is to know or understand one's audience. Without this sensitivity, it is impossible to choose words that will have the desired impact on the person or people with whom we are speaking.

Before Reading >> English Song –That’s What Friends Are ForI. Introductory RemarksJust what are friends for? To have fun with, of course, to share in the good times. Yet most people would say that a real friend is more than just a fair-weather friend. A fair-weather friend?A fair-weather friend is someone who's happy to stay with you when things are going well but leaves as soon as trouble arrives, while a good friend, a true friend, is one who'll stand by you when you find yourself in difficulties. Th at’s certainly what the song is about. As they tell each other … So let's listen to them as they sing the song.II. That’s What Friends Are ForListen to the song and fill in the blanks with what you hear.And I never thought I’d feel this wayAnd as far as I’m concernedI’m glad I got the chance to sayThat I do believe I love youAnd if I should ever go awayWell, then close your eyes and tryTo feel the way we do todayAnd then if you can rememberKeep smiling, keep shiningKnowing you can always count on meFor sure, that’s what friends are forFor good times and bad timesI’ll be on your side forevermoreThat’s what friends are forWell, you came and opened meAnd now there’s so much more I seeAnd so by the way, I thank youAnd then for the times we’re apartWell, then close your eyes and knowThese words are coming from my heartAnd then if you can rememberKeep smiling, keep shiningKnowing you can always count on meFor sure, that’s what friends are forIn good times and bad timesI’ll b e on your side forevermoreThat’s what friends are forKeep smiling, keep shiningKnowing you can always count on meFor sure, that’s what friends are forFor good times and bad timesI’ll be on your side forevermoreThat’s what friends are forKeep smiling, keep shiningKnowing you can always count on meFor sure, that’s w hat friends are forFor good times and for bad timesI’ll be on your side forevermoreThat’s what friends are forCount on me, for sureCount on me, for sureCount on me, for sureT hat’s what friends are forKeep smiling, keep shiningIII. Questions and Answers1. What is a fair-weather friend?(One who is happy to stay with you when things are going well but leaves as soon as trouble arrives.)2. Do you know anything about the singers?(Dionne Warwick, Elton John, Stevie Wonder and Gladys Knight.Dionne WarwickDionne Warwick was a pop and R&B (Rhythm and Blues, 节奏蓝调音乐) music star of the 1960s and 1970s. In the 1980s she worked jointly with Elton John, Gladys Knight and Stevie Wonder on the Grammy-winning single That’s What Friends Are For, a fundraiser for AIDS victims. Elton JohnElton John (1947~), an English rock composer, singer and pianist, is one of rock music’s durable (持久的) performers. He played the piano by ear from age four, and studied at the Royal Academy of Music at 11. The top pop star of the 1970s, his performance was featured by wild eyeglasses and outlandish (奇异的) costumes on the stage. Despite health problems in 1993 he continues to perform live across the world, mostly on the softer side these days.His latest success includes the best-selling sound track for The Lion King (1994), a Disney film. And the recording of Candle in the Wind 97, sung at the funeral of Princess Diana, became the largest-selling single in history within a month of its release (发行). He was knighted (授予爵士称号) in 1998.)3. According to the song, what are friends for?(For both good times and bad times.)4. How can friend and friendship be defined?(Friend Definition A:A friend is one to whom one may pour out all the contents of one’s heart, chaff (谷壳)and grain together, knowing that gentle hands will take and sift (筛，过滤) them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.— George Eliot (1819~1880), English novelist Friend Definition B:A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him, I may think aloud.— Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803~1882),American poet and philosopher Friend Definition C:A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your successes.— Doug Larson (1902~1981),English middle-distance runner Friendship Definition A:True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.— Charles Caleb Colton (1780~1832),English author and clergyman Friendship Definition B:Friendship is a ship big enough to carry two in fair weather, but only one in foul (天气恶劣的).— Ambrose Bierce (1842~1914),American author and journalist,from The Devil’s Dictionary Friendship Definition C:Friendship is a treasure that always helps us overcome any kind of difficulty. Friendship is a comfort which always understands worries and emotions. Friendship is a blessing because it teaches the way to live.— Unknown) 5. Can you give some examples of great friendship?(Marx and EngelsMarx valued Engels’ friendship so highly that he once said he loved and admired his friend very much. Engels had been aiding Marx who suffered greatly from bitter poverty. Were it not for the help Marx obtained from Engels, Marx would hardly have been able to overcome poverty and he surely would not have left behind him a monument.Qu Qiubai and Lu XunQu Qiubai was one of CPC’s pri ncipal leaders in the early period. Under the persecution (迫害)of Wang Ming, one of the CPC’s early leaders, Qu was dismissed from his important posts in the CPC Central Committee. But he soon took an active part in the struggles launched by theleft-wing cultural front, together with Lu Xun, in Shanghai. During the two years of joint work , they became true friends.)Before Reading >> Background InformationHalloweenHalloween is celebrated annually. It is on the night of 31 October, when people once believed that ghosts could be seen. Now, in Britain and America, it is a time when children have parties, dress up as witches, make lanterns out of pumpkins from which the inside has been remo ved, and play “trick or treat”.“Trick or treat” is a traditional activity at Halloween. Children dress in costumes and visit houses. At each house they say “Trick or treat”. This means that they will play a “trick”, or joke, on the people in the house unless they are given a “treat”, e.g. sweets or money. Most people prefer to give treats rather than having tricks played on them.Before Reading >> Word WebThe stories in this unit are about friendship.
