Ich hab veruscht diese Aufgabe zu bearbeiten, da ich aber 1 Jahr kein Englisch hatte (ausgefallen) fiel es mir ziemlich schwer ganze sätze zu bilden oder die Sätze zu verknüpfen.Es wäre nett wenn jemand meinen Text korrigieren und was ergänzen könnte.Danke!
The picture of America is described very positive.In the song it is said that America is a land of unlimited opportunities. In the first stanza it is said that a child without money can grow up and compass his aim.Money is unimportant.
People in America are free.They can do or be what they want to.
The song also tells us that the people there are very clever.They know how to sell products at any price.But this also shows that the consumers in America are silly enough to buy expensive products.They do not care about money.
Everything is advanced there.They have cable TV and satellits.
All in all Holly Johnson is of the opinion that everything in America is possible and good.
My picture of America isn't exactly the same as Johnson's one.In my opinion most of the things descriibed in the songs aplly to a lot of other countries especially in Europe.When I think of america I think of full and loud street,traffic and busy people.I also associate Hollywood with america. The stars the oscar and other events in america.
