A student is doing research for a report on early filmmaking. Read her two sources and complete the task that follows.

Source 1

Modern moviegoers, familiar with dramatic special effects, are often surprised by the simplicity of

early motion pictures. It is hard to imagine how black-and-white movies with no sound and simple

plots could excite an audience. And yet in 1903, The Great Train Robbery created a sensation with

no color, no soundtrack, and less than a dozen minutes in which to tell a simple but exciting story.

Source 2

The Kinetoscope was an early type of movie projector invented by Thomas Edison in 1891. For

Edison, the invention was an amusing distraction, a toy. The moving images were the result of

playful experiment. Most of the early efforts to produce motion pictures were brief representations of

familiar scenes, such as a running horse or a man sneezing. Even so, people found them fascinating.

Select two statements that should be revised because they plagiarize one or both of the sources.

Select two.

A. Audiences were amazed by even simple images like a man sneezing or a horse running.

B. As filmmakers gradually learned, audiences loved motion pictures that told an interesting story.

C. Most of the early efforts to produce motion pictures were brief representations of familiar scenes.

D. People today, who are familiar with dramatic special effects, are often surprised by the simplicity

of early movies.

E. It seems likely that people were attracted to even the simplest of motion pictures because of

novelty.

F. Even without special effects or sound, black-and-white movies were as popular as any movie

made today.

Part 2: thoreau’s ideas had a profound effect on a man named gandhi. gandhi, was a leader in india who worked to end british rule. he led india to independence and inspired many to non-violent forms of protest and resistance. he fought to end poverty, worked to expand women's right to vote, and built bridges between ethnic and religious groups. like thoreau, he lived simply, owned very little, and ate a vegetarian diet. in india, gandhi's form of protest was called the "non-cooperation movement." he urged indians to boycott british education systems and leave government jobs. the movement was very popular, and in part to stop its spread, the british controlled government arrested him. after a few years, he was released and became active in politics again. he inspired many to follow him on marches to protest various taxes. on one such march, thousands followed him 240 miles over 24 days to the sea to protest a salt tax. this march set the example of non-violent resistance to the government that others in the country followed. eventually india won independence from britain, in large part because of gandhi work. gandhi's model of resistance and reform was creative, appealing, and successful. as a result, dr. martin luther king looked to gandhi when the time came to find a way to resist segregation in the south. the lunch counter protests, famous for the passive response to anger, and even violence, aimed to end the separation enforced by laws in some regions of the south. king also organized walks, marches, and bus rides that were meant to bring attention to the issues facing african americans. these forms of protest were directly modeled on gandhi's, but king took them straight to the source of oppression. where gandhi's protests created awareness and built momentum, king's protests were in the face of great hatred and fear. the passive, non-violent protests were ultimately effective, mainly because the passive response to violence cast the opposition as brutes. however, change came slowly and at the cost of many lives. king remained committed to peaceful protest, however, until his death. king learned from gandhi, expanding on what worked, applying old techniques to a new problem. gandhi owed his philosophy, in part, to a new england poet who loved the woods. read this sentence from part 2: like thoreau, he lived simply, owned very little, and ate a vegetarian diet. what is the point of this sentence? gandhi and thoreau had similar childhoods. gandhi had many admirable qualities. thoreau and gandhi were very similar. thoreau had a simple life compared to others.
