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.

Read about this story (http://madelinemiller.com/myth-of-the-week-clytemnestra/), referenced at the beginning of the Odyssey. Wh
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Homer's purpose in having Zeus recall the story of Agamemnon, Clytemnestra, Aegisthus, and Orestes in such detail might be to demonstrate the failures of men and their inability to listen or trust in the words of the gods.

Explanation:

In the hall of Zeus on Mount Olympos, all the gods but Poseidon gather and listen as Zeus reflects upon the moral failings of mortal men. He brings up the example of Aigisthos, who killed Agamemnon and stole his wife, though the gods warned him that Agamemnon's son, Orestes, would someday retaliate - which he justly did. Athena speaks on behalf of Odysseus, pleading with Zeus to free him from Calypso's grasp. He agrees, and the god Hermes will be sent to Calypso to ask her to free Odysseus.

I hope this helps you in any shape or form.

Read the stanza from "Twelfth Song of Thunder."
djyliett [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C. that the beauty of nature resides even in the most unlikely places .

Explanation:

According to this stanza, the Navajo people saw beauty in everything around them.

As these lines say, beauty can be found in grasshoppers, in land, in plants.

Sometimes you can think that beauty is something aesthetic and is only seen in things that we see beautiful with the naked eye, but this was not the thinking of the Navajo people.

Select the best analogy elation : to carry A. exhilarated : to stretch B. contrite : to bend C. coherent : to place D. exonerate
Fofino [41]
Personally, the option I would choose is D. exonerated: out of, to complete the analogy. My reasoning would be that when you are carried by emotions, you are elated, the same way that when you are exonerated, you are deposed, or out of a certain service.
However, the answer that I found people saying is correct all over the Internet is C. coherent : to place, so, I don't know whom you should believe, sorry. :/
