In the Riddle of the Rosetta Stone, It was pointed out that Champollion had an inscription which had been written both in Greek and Hieroglyphs. This is where he proved that the Hieroglyphs produced sounds by changing the spelling of "Ptolmis".

These statements each express different tones. Match each statement with the appropriate tone.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

The correct way of matching each statement with the appropriate tone is the following:

* Angry tone: the adjective “annoying” implies the angry tone of the speaker. (A cell phone can be annoying when you forget to turn on the silent feature before going to sleep)

* Accepting tone: the speaker acknowledges the problem with the battery, yet she/he accepts it by carrying a charger as a solution to it. (The problem is that the battery doesn’t last long, but I don’t mind carrying a charger)

* Objective tone: the speaker is objective by stating only facts about the device. (The cell phone makes calling convenient from all possible locations)

* Sentimental tone: the verb “cherish”, and the noun “gift” imply the sentimental tone of the speaker. (I will always cherish my first cell phone because it was a gift from my dad)

* Optimistic tone: the speaker has an optimistic tone, as she/he speaks about a possible future development. (I think we can soon expect a technology that charges phones in seconds)

Natalka [10]

Answer:

taxi, Empire State Building, corner, Fifth Avenue, at(?) West 54th Street.

Explanation:

Well a noun is a person place or thing. Street numbers are nouns as well. A is an indefinite article. I am not a 100% sure this is correct but from my perspective thats what it is. At is either a preposition or a noun. In this situation, I believe it is a noun.

Help me pleaseee
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

It was Saturday morning as I ran down the sidewalk, trying to catch the bus. The bus opened it's doors letting out warm air.

"Where to?" The driver asks.

"Powhatan Library," I say.

I sit down and soon we arrive at the library. I jump up and walk down the aisle, then down the steps.

"Oh, no!" The driver yells furiously.

"The bus broke down!" He yellled.

I suddenly hear a soft cry behind the bus stop. I walk toward it and see a little box with a baby inside. It's wearing a vest with a pack of diapers beside him.

I grab the box and walk down the sidewalk. My house isn't too far away so I head towards my house. When I arrived I called the police and let them know about the baby.

A patrol car arrives, takes pictures, and took the box. He took the baby to the Welfare Department.

I started to softly cry. I felt bad for the baby and hoped he would find a loving home.

Answer:

It makes the imagined addressee feel more present to the reader.

Explanation:

In this poem, the author refers to his addressee as a "master poet." This master poet is most likely God. The author tells us that he cannot be "vain" and believe himself to be a good poet when he looks at how talented God is. He feels humbled by God's power and the beauty of his creations. By referring to God as another poet, the author makes Him feel more present to the reader.
