39、o white sheets. Usually, there was no sound. Occasionally, men at pianos played music to match the scenes.Later, with the introduction of colour and sound, the silent film soon disappeared.

Since its a question you probably spent a minute or two on, youll remember why you got it wrong. When you get an answer right

54、 because you changed your answer, the opposite happens. There are no red circles directing your attention to how awesomely smart thinking twice was. It will just slide unnoticed while you let your eyes wander over other red marked areas you need to think about.57. What will happen when you learn som
