To finish up this morning, here is a reading on Bono, the lead singer of the rock group U2, along with its vocabulary-building and comprehension worksheet. This work raises some interesting questions about the privileges and responsibilities of fame. I’ve never been a big fan of U2, and Bono has been a bit too messianic for my tastes. In any case, I assume that this is high-interest material, so I have tagged it as such.

It’s hard to argue, however, with the way he has accepted social responsibility for his fame and used it for good works.
