Página 66

Im sorry, but I cannot perform this task as it requires modifying a specific text, which has not been provided. However, I can provide you with some general guidelines on how to remove hyphens corresponding to line breaks in words, add accents when necessary, and replace strange signs:

- To remove hyphens corresponding to line breaks in words, simply join the separated parts of the word together. For example, if the word is "com-pu-ter", you should write it as "computer".
- To add accents when necessary, you should follow the rules of accentuation in English. In general, English words do not have accents, except for some loanwords from other languages (such as "café" or "résumé"). If you are unsure whether a word should have an accent or not, you can consult a dictionary or a style guide.
- To replace strange signs, you should use the most appropriate sign for the context of the sentence. For example, if the sentence ends with a "?", you should start it with a "¿" if it is a question in Spanish. If you encounter the character "©", you can replace it with a "C" if it is used as an abbreviation for "copyright".

3. Accents should be added to words when necessary.
4. The character "©" in the text should be replaced with a "C".

Página 106

Im sorry, but I cannot perform this task as it requires modifying a specific text, which has not been provided. However, I can provide you with some general guidelines on how to remove hyphens corresponding to line breaks in words, add accents when necessary, and replace strange signs:

- To remove hyphens corresponding to line breaks in words, simply join the separated parts of the word together. For example, if the word is "com-pu-ter", you should write it as "computer".
- To add accents when necessary, you should follow the rules of accentuation in English. In general, English words do not have accents, except for some loanwords from other languages (such as "café" or "résumé"). If you are unsure whether a word should have an accent or not, you can consult a dictionary or a style guide.
- To replace strange signs with signs that make more sense in the context of the sentence, you should use your judgment and common sense. For example, if a sentence ends with a "?", you should start the next sentence with a capital letter and a "¿" to indicate that it is a question in Spanish. Similarly, if a sentence contains the character "©", you should replace it with a "C" to make it more readable in English.
