Part I Pre-reading Task
Script for the recording:
Just 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. That's certainly what the American pop singer Dionne Warwick thinks. As
she tells her friend
... you can always count on me,
For sure, that's what friends are for,
For good times, an bad times,
I’ 11 be on your side forevermore.
But she sings it better than I can say it. So let's listen to her as she sings her song That's What
Friends Are For. Appendix I - 95 -
