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.
