Answer:
c: Champollion was amazed after seeing Karnak
Explanation:
Jean-François Champollion was a French linguist most famous for his work on Ancient Egypt and for deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphics.
In this excerpt we can clearly see signs of deep admiration and fascination Champollion had towards Egyptian culture, society and especially architecture.
That can best be seen from his sentence: "No nation on earth, ancient or modern, has ever conceived architecture on so noble and vast a scale".
This diary entry suggests that he was extremly amazed at the sight of Karnak.
Answer:
It uses irony to show that despite her expectation of being missed by someone, no one seemed to have the same sentiment. rather, she found that her dog was the one digging, not because he missed her but to bury his bone. He also added that he had forgotten she was buried there.
Explanation:
The final stanza of the poem <em>"Oh, Are You Digging On My Grave?"</em> by Thomas Hardy shows a dead woman expecting someone would remember her. The lines goes like this-
<u><em>"Mistress, I dug upon your grave
</em></u>
<u><em>To bury a bone, in case
</em></u>
<u><em>I should be hungry near this spot
</em></u>
<u><em>When passing on my daily trot.
</em></u>
<u><em>I am sorry, but I quite forgot
</em></u>
<u><em>It was your resting-place."</em></u>
She heard someone digging her grave and then she began guessing who that would be, her husband 'who must have missed her' or her family or even her enemy. But it was none of them but rather her dog. Even then, she was happy to know that at least someone remembered her. Ironically, the dog wasn't there for her but rather to hide his bone in case he gets hungry on his walks. This irony in the scene's reality and the narrator's expectations shows how she must have been missed by someone. But it was nobody except her dog who wants to hide his bone not because he felt anything for her. Not only that, he also mentioned that he had quite forgotten that she was buried there.
Answer:
The interpretation of the "farewell speech by Polonius to Laertes is given below:
"Try to think of it like that, anyway. When a youth grows into a man, he doesn’t just get bigger in his body—his responsibilities grow too. He may love you now, and may have only the best intentions, but you have to be on your guard.
Remember that he belongs to the royal family, and his intentions don’t matter that much—he’s a slave to his family obligations. He can’t simply make personal choices for himself the way common people can, since the whole country depends on what he does. His choice has to agree with what the nation wants.
So if he says he loves you, you should be wise enough to see that his words only mean as much as the state of Denmark allows them to mean.
Then think about how shameful it would be for you to give in to his seductive talk and surrender your treasure chest to his greedy hands. Watch out, Ophelia. Just keep your love under control, and don’t let yourself become a target of his lust.
Simply exposing your beauty to the moon at night is risky enough—you don’t have to expose yourself to him. Even good girls sometimes get a bad reputation. Worms ruin flowers before they blossom. Baby blooms are most susceptible to disease. So be careful. Fear will keep you safe. Young people often lose their self-control even without any help from others."

The writing process can be described as a recursive process. For many years, it was considered that writing was linear, and that 5 steps were needed:
Prewriting: It's similar to Brainstorming. You organize your thoughts, your ideas. You plan how the text should be organized.
Drafting: It is your first attempt. Forget about grammar.
Revising: Now, you can add things, re-arrange words or paragraphs, take out.
Proofreading: this is the editing time. Mistakes, tenses should be considered. Clarity is essential.
Publishing: final stage. Ready to print or handed in toyour teacher
But in further research, it was proved that those stages overlap, as they are repeated throughout the writing process.
BRAINSTORMING is a helpful step to take before writing as you put into paper all your ideas ( you may use all or some of them) It is opening your mind to any idea that comes, however crazy it sounds.
COVER LETTER There are some key elements that should be considered when writing a cover letter:
- Begin with your contact information ( on the left of the paper, towards the top,in block)
- Don't forget the date as with any normal letter!
- Include to who this letter is addressed ( hiring manager, head of the recruiting department, etc)
- Formal salutation
- Opening paragraph (explain how you learned about the opening position)
- Middle paragraph ( a summary of your background and why you are suitable for this job)
- Contact information and closing ( explain when you are available, thanks the person for his/her time and consideration)
