Question

Young made several mistakes. He thought the third hieroglyph was part of the one for "T," whereas it actually stood for the vowel "O'." The fourth hieroglyph, the lion, meant just "L," the fifth meant "M," and the last hieroglyph stood simply for "S." In other words, the spelling in Egyptian was "Ptolmis," not "Ptolemaios." Which statement best describes this excerpt? This excerpt is biased because it reflects an attitude about Young's actions. This excerpt is biased because it reflects an attitude about Egyptian spelling. This excerpt is unbiased because it provides opinions about Egyptian spelling. This excerpt is unbiased because it provides details about Young's actions.

Answer 1

Answer:

D). This excerpt is unbiased because it provides details about Young's actions.

He logically justifies his claim of mistakes committed by Young(thought...'Ptolmis' not 'Ptolemaios') which suggest that he is unbiased. Thus, option D is the correct answer.
