The passage: In July of 1799, over 200 years ago, French soldiers came upon a block of stone in the Egyptian town of el-Rashid,

or Rosetta. The stone was inscribed with three translations of the same message from priests of Ptolemy V. The message itself, having to do with taxes on priests, is rather unimportant for us today. However, the Rosetta Stone, as it has come to be called, provided scholars with the key to translating Egyptian hieroglyphics. Two of the languages on the stone are Egyptian, one of them being hieroglyphics and the other being Demotic. The second language is Greek. Therefore, linguists familiar with Greek were able to roughly translate the meaning of the hieroglyphs. Hieroglyphs were a formal writing system in Egypt that used picture symbols. Such writing is found in many of Egypt’s most famous structures, including the Great Pyramids. These symbols were able to be translated after the discovery and translation of the Rosetta Stone.
question: What is the best summary of this passage?

a. The Rosetta Stone, which made translating Egyptian hieroglyphs possible, was discovered over 200 years ago in el-Rashid, Egypt.

b.The message on the Rosetta Stone dates from the time of Ptolemy V and is a declaration of important tax information for priests near el-Rashid.

c. The discovery of the Rosetta Stone finally made possible the translation of many examples of hieroglyphs in places like the Great Pyramids of Egypt.

d. The Rosetta Stone was inscribed with a message in three languages, including Greek, making translation of Demotic and hieroglyphs possible.

I believe the correct answer is: B. Dialect.

 

<span>     The epoch of Realism (19th century) is characterized by the constant tendency of authors to show real life as vividly and convincing as it can be. This is often achieved by description of ambient to the tiniest details and characterizing characters as humanly possible.
     One of the techniques of characterization is regionalism – including dialects to represent social class, age and origin</span>

astraxan [27]

Answer:

As a part of my duty as a president of ‘disciplinary society’ (a joy that I have had for past five years), I have been asked, to write a report suggesting the changes I think are needed to maintain a healthy decorum for young children and teenagers in school premises. After having some professional surveys, we have discovered that there are five sites which are prompting ailing environment in our prestigious institution.

Potently, ​ ​unhealthy​ food​ is offered in five main cafeterias of school with lack of hygiene products. ​ ​Junk food might taste good, but eating too often in your diet can have negative​ ​effects on your overall health. ​ ​A​s ​these diets are high in​ ​saturated fat and calories and​ ​low in nutrients​ and​ can ​​contribute to illness and obesity. According to the​ ​U.S. Department of​ ​Agriculture (USDA), if everyone adopted a healthier diet, it could prevent $71 billion in expenses associated with lost productivity, medical costs and premature deaths.

We can improve the situation by strong implications of some rules. For example, new menus might be introduced with less oily food. A program of regular exercises and guidance should be arranged on how to eat healthily and live a healthier life. Cafeteria must be modified to deliver a hygiene food and environment for students.

This would prove beneficial for both students and institution. Consequently, there would be fewer absences from school because of stomach upsets. Leading to a more alert mind leading to better concentration and academic performance. Generally, finding school more attractive.  The school would also benefit from an enhanced reputation and this would eventually increase the number of candidates as parents would become aware of the new regime.

Once again, we hope that the recommendations from this report are taken seriously as there is clear need to invest in health sector to promote a healthy community to reduce health issues among students.
