the language teacher
Songs have become one of very useful teaching aids. There are a number of activities a teacher can develop when using using songs in his or her class, like fill in the blank, rearrange jumbled sentences, correcting mistyped words, or even comprehension questions after finish listening the song. In this post, we can have a practice of a song entitled "Love the Way You Lie" sung by Eminem featuring Rihanna.
Rihanna ft. Eminem - Love The Way You Lie
1. Listen and put the sentences in order.- Well that’s alright because I love the way you lie
- Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
- I love the way you lie
- Well that’s alright because I like the way it hurts
- Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
2. Listen and fill in the gaps.
[Eminem]
I can’t tell you what it really ..............
I can only tell you ............... it feels like
And right now there’s a steel knife in my windpipe
I can’t breathe but I still ............... while I can fight
As long as the wrong feels ................. it’s like I’m in flight
High off of ............, drunk from my hate
Its like I’m huffing paint
And I love it the more that I suffer, I suffocate
And right before I’m .................... to drown she resuscitates me
She fucking hates me and I love it, ..............
Where you going, I’m leaving you
No you ain’t, come ............
We’re ................ right back
Here we go again, it’s so insane
Cause when it’s going good it’s going great
I’m superman with the ............... at his back, she’s Lois Lane
But when it’s bad it’s awful I feel so ashamed, I snapped
Who’s that dude I don’t even know his .............
I laid hands on her, I’ll never stoop so low ...............
I guess I don’t know my own strength
I can’t tell you what it really ..............
I can only tell you ............... it feels like
And right now there’s a steel knife in my windpipe
I can’t breathe but I still ............... while I can fight
As long as the wrong feels ................. it’s like I’m in flight
High off of ............, drunk from my hate
Its like I’m huffing paint
And I love it the more that I suffer, I suffocate
And right before I’m .................... to drown she resuscitates me
She fucking hates me and I love it, ..............
Where you going, I’m leaving you
No you ain’t, come ............
We’re ................ right back
Here we go again, it’s so insane
Cause when it’s going good it’s going great
I’m superman with the ............... at his back, she’s Lois Lane
But when it’s bad it’s awful I feel so ashamed, I snapped
Who’s that dude I don’t even know his .............
I laid hands on her, I’ll never stoop so low ...............
I guess I don’t know my own strength
CHORUS

SOMEBODY WAYS GAME EACH WHEN YESTERDAY WINDOW FEELING PLAYING MOMENTS NOTHING
You ever love ........................ so much
You can barely breathe ........................ you’re with ‘em
You meet and neither one of you even know what hit ‘em
Got that warm fuzzy ........................
Yeah them chills used to get ‘em

Yesterday is over, it’s a different day
Silent broken records ......................... over

4. Listen and put the groups of sentences in order.
[Eminem]
Maybe that’s what happens when a tornado meets a volcano
All I know is I love you too much to walk away though
Come inside, pick up your bags off the sidewalk
Don’t you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk?
All I know is I love you too much to walk away though
Come inside, pick up your bags off the sidewalk
Don’t you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk?
Now I know we said things
Did things that we didn’t mean
And we fall back into the same patterns, same routine
But your temper is just as bad is mine is
Did things that we didn’t mean
And we fall back into the same patterns, same routine
But your temper is just as bad is mine is
’m tired of the games I just want her back
I know I’m a liar if she ever tries to fucking leave again
I’mma tie her to the bed and set this house on fire
I know I’m a liar if she ever tries to fucking leave again
I’mma tie her to the bed and set this house on fire
You’re the same as me
When it comes to love you’re just as blinded
Baby, please come back it wasn’t you maybe it was me
Maybe our relationship isn’t as crazy as it seems
When it comes to love you’re just as blinded
Baby, please come back it wasn’t you maybe it was me
Maybe our relationship isn’t as crazy as it seems
Told you this is my fault, look in the eyeball
Next time I’m pissed I’ll aim my fist at the drywall
Next time, there won’t be no next time
I apologize even though I know it’s lies
Next time I’m pissed I’ll aim my fist at the drywall
Next time, there won’t be no next time
I apologize even though I know it’s lies
CHORUS
Seriously, you couldn't have picked a song that's not about a guy beating his girlfriend?
