Sounds is vitality

When I read the War of the Worlds, I felt like I confused the people in the story. But when I listened the redio, I hear the voise from people, I can make more sence from their voise and tone of the attitude. This make me think about how important the sounds to help people to understand and get into the reading.

I completely agree. The sounds played during the War of The Worlds radio broadcast made the story much more interesting and allowed me to get into the story more. The sounds definitely helped me understand thestory better and allowed me to feel stronger emotions because I got more emotionally invested in the story. Also, the radio broadcast definitely allowed me to understand the tone and attitudes of the characters.
