Answer:
<em>Once they had mastered the three kinds of Egyptian writing, nineteenth-century scholars had the key to more than three thousand years of Egyptian history.</em>
Explanation:
The cause-and-effect relationship is a type of relationship where one thing or event makes another one happen. The first thing/event is referred to as the cause, and its consequence is the effect.
The excerpt from<em> The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone </em>that shows this relationship is the fourth one: <em>Once they had mastered the three kinds of Egyptian writing, nineteenth-century scholars had the key to more than three thousand years of Egyptian history.</em>
We have two events - the 19th-century scholars mastering the three kinds of Egyptian writing, and them having the key to more than three thousand years of Egyptian history. The former is the cause of the latter: if they didn't master Egyptian writing, they wouldn't know that much about Egyptian history.
Answer:
a) Appearances are deceiving.
Explanation:
It's easy to be fooled by outward looks, like in the poem "Queen of the Cats." An innocent-looking cat by the name of Old Polly looks to be a sweetheart. On closer investigation, though, it becomes apparent that she is a clever and devious feline. As far as I can tell, she's been a good buddy to the other cats she's lived with. The truth is, her ultimate allegiance is to herself. She takes advantage of the other cats that come to her for aid. At the end of the story, she is shown to be a selfish monster who uses people to get what she wants.
