Questão 761056

Read the text and answer questions 42, 43, 44 and 45.

1 My neighbors love Christmas, but I don’t. In fact, if I can

be completely honest, I hate Christmas. Maybe it’s because

Christmas was always a little depressing when I was a young

boy. Anyway, my neighbors really love Christmas and every

5 year they decorate the inside and outside of their house with

big, bright lights. This year, however, they really

exaggerated: their lights are so bright that I can’t sleep at

night! Tomorrow I am going to speak to my neighbors and

ask that the lights __________ reduced or removed.

The word “anyway”, underlined in the text, was used to __________.
