class.


Chris: Do you spend any of your free time playing Xbox Live?
Kane: Not so much online anymore, because I live in an area where I don't get broadband, I get satellite. I used to play Halo 2 and Ghost Recon online quite a bit.
Chris: What other games do you play?
Kane: Right now I'm playing THQ's Raw vs. Smackdown 2006, our game on the PSP. I'm not actually playing all that much console stuff because I've been on the road quite a bit...
Chris: Do you always play as yourself?
Kane: Yeah.
Chris: Are you going to be at the Wrestlemania?
Kane: Oh yeah.
Chris: Do you know who you're going to face?
Kane: Not yet.
Chris: Seems to be back in the day, there used to be a lot of tag teams, especially back in the Eighties. It seems like that's fallen off. Why do you think that is?
Kane: I don't know. You're right, I think. I watching a videotape of I'm not sure which year it was... I think it was Summer Slam 1986 or 87. It was The Rock and Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty and stuff, The Quebecers. It was just different, because it was a tag team match and you don't see that much anymore. I don't know the reason for that. I just don't know. I think you're right to some extent.
Chris: When you were in college, were you always aspiring to be a wrestler?
Kane: Yeah. I remember when I was a kid, I was a wrestling fan, and then actually my local stations didn't broadcast it for awhile, and then when I got back into college that's when Hulk Hogan was at the height of his career, so I became a wrestling fan again. I was very active in college. I wanted to play athletics and then I looked at wrestling as being a viable option to do that.
Chris: Was Hogan the person who inspired you, or were there others?
Kane: Oh no. You had Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, Ricky Steamboat, Ric Flair and the Four Horsemen, all those guys. Actually, when I was first getting into wrestling, the Undertaker was my favourite. Remember when he was building caskets for people and things like that? That was just classic... just awesome.
Chris: Did that play any role in your being cast as his half-brother?
Kane: No, that didn't. But I think it did play a role in the success that I have had, especially the way that I was introduced as the Undertaker's brother and all that, because I could relate to that. It was pretty natural for me.
Chris: How has the WWE changed in the past ten years?
Kane: In some ways, we've gone through an evolution. Actually, the biggest change I see, from when I first started with the company is our television products - we've become more and more television driven, and our television products have become stronger. When I first started with the company, the format of the show was a lot different than it is now. A lot of that was because of competition from formerly WCW. You know, we were able to overcome that... I think our television product's stronger. We've gone on to some of the best years the business has ever seen and it'll continue. I think the striking thing for me is that the television product has gone through such an evolution.
Chris: Are you happy with the way your character is shaping up?
Kane: Yeah, I've always been happy. Infact, it's been tremendous; more than I can ever hope for.
Chris: Were you scarier with the mask?
Kane: I get that question all the time. Actually I prefer it without the mask because as a performer I'm unlimited in what I can do, whereas with the mask I relied a lot more on body language. But, by the same token, the mask had a certain aura about it, there was mystery and all that stuff. I like it without the mask, but like you said, a lot of people like the mask, so it just depends... Of course, there are days, too, where I like the mask better. [Laughter]
Chris: Bret Hart is being inducted into the Hall of Fame. What's your favourite Bret Hart memory?
Kane: Oh, wow! I guess it would be the culmination when he beat Ric Flair for the World Championship, because that's the high point of someone's career. I'm glad to see Bret going into the Hall of Fame; I'm glad to see that happening.
Chris: With everything you've done in the world of wrestling, what more do you think you have left to accomplish?
Kane: I don't think I have anything left to accomplish, but the important thing for me is that I'm still having fun and that the people are entertained, and it's really gratifying for me now that our fans come up to me, and because I've stood the test of time, they have a respect for me. I may not be the hottest wrestler at the time, but I always knew that people are going to be with me because they've sort of grown up with me. So, I don't necessarily know that I've got a whole lot left to accomplish, but I'm still enjoying myself and I'm still entertaining the people, which to me is something basically you need to accomplish every night.

What do these lines convey?


The poet draws conclusions about the family without having met them. He does this in lines such as : 

Something went wrong, says the empty house 
in the weed-choked yard ... 
This is a style of English that is very suitable for a poem. But in ordinary speech or writing we use expressions such as : 

So it is

Therefore it is

probable 

likely 

possible 

that
It

seems

appears

that....... because.....
This suggests that ... 

For example, we could say : 
• There are large shoes in the farmhouse. So it is likely that the farmer was a big man. 
• It seems that they had a child, because there is a sandbox made from a tractor tyre. 
• The kitchen shelves were covered with oil cloth. This suggests that a woman lived in the farmhouse. 
Make other sentences like this, using ideas from the poem.
