The original purpose of the Sphinx is unknown. It may have been built to symbolically guard over the Giza plateau, and it may have been a portrait of Pharaoh Khafre<span>. It's face seems to bear a resemblance to Khafre's, and the royal headdress that it wears is particular to pharaohs.</span>

The purpose of the Sphinx was to guard the pyramids and crush the Pharaohs enemies that try to rob his tomb. It also means the wisdom and strength. that's what I would have thought it was without reading it.

Answer:

1 The ‘Scarlet Pimpernel’ is the name used by Sir Percy Blakeney, an Englishman who uses many clever disguises (=ways of changing your clothes and appearance so that people do not recognize you) in order to help French people from a high social class to escape from France, and from the possibility of having their heads cut off by the guillotine during the French Revolution. There is a well-known short poem about him, which begins with the words ‘They seek him here, they seek him there...’, and is about how difficult it is to find the Scarlet Pimpernel.

2. Marguerite considers her betrayal of the Scarlet Pimpernel truly “base” and feels she must atone for her sin.

lorasvet [3.4K]
One of the most significant factors that led to the increase in the number of Latin Americans in the middle class in the late 19th century was the revolutions that took place around 1848, since these were initiated by primarily lower class people looking for a stronger socio-economic standing.
