00:12

Seemed before study shut A person intentionally hurt some family

00:18

00:23

it's wrong All right what change should be made in

00:27

sentence one And here the potential answers All right well

00:32

what to do with a problem like sentence one Here

00:35

we go Some people think that animal cruelty is not

00:37

an important matter but in fact it should be taken

00:40

very serious All right don't ask choice D yeah suggestions

00:44

useless important and relevant mean basically the same thing in

00:48
