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.

Reflect on the strange care of Dr Jekyll and me Hyde in rice to six sentences explain how Dr Jekyll develops
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

in the beginning of the story, Dr. Jekyll is confident, social, and healthy, but over time, he progressively becomes more ill and weak and secludes himself from everyone. We learn from Dr. Jekyll’s confession that his decline is due to his loss of control over his evil side, Mr. Hyde. Because the potion no longer has the effect it once had, Mr. Hyde becomes stronger, while Dr. Jekyll becomes weaker. As Dr. Jekyll silently struggles with his situation, he deteriorates mentally and physically. As a result, Dr. Jekyll doubts the choices he made.
