Answer:

Cause: A few experts challenged Champollion's methods

Effect: Defenders of Champollion proved that he was correct

Explanation:

Cause and effect is the relationship between events or things in which the different events happen as a result of the other.

So from the excerpt, we are told that a few experts challenged Champollion's methods and clung to the notion that hieroglyphs had a purely symbolic meaning but his (Champollion) defenders proved that his approach was correct beyond every reasonable doubt.

The cause and effect relationship here is such that the accusation that Champollion's methods were false made his followers to perform extra studies and prove that he was correct.

Which quotations support the central idea that Brutus thinks Caesar needs to be killed before he becomes dangerous? Select three

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

A). "And to speak truth of Caesar, / I have not known when his affections swayed / More than his reason."

D). “And since the quarrel / Will bear no colour for the thing he is”

E). “And therefore think him as a serpent’s egg / Which, hatched, would as his kind grow mischievous, / And kill him in the shell.”

Explanation:

In the given excerpt from Julius Caesar, the options A, D, and E(as mentioned above) reveals as well as supports the idea that Brutus found it necessary to kill Caesar before he could become dangerous for any one. The first quotation('And to....reason') reveals that Brutus had no idea when Caesar transforms into an emotional being from a rational and responsible man('affections sway his reason'). The next quote('And since..he is') discloses that Brutus considered Caesar to be incapable of handling power sensibly once he acquires it. The third quotation('and therefore...shell') reveals the final support to Brutus view that he would become like a 'serpent's egg' after attaining power and become more harmful and threatening . Thus, he must be killed before that and hence, options A, D, and E are the correct answers.
