Answer:

A piano .

James Weldon Johnson's fictional "The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man," tells the story of a biracial man and his 'journey to understand and accept his identity. The story deals with themes of race, acceptance, and understanding one's real identity.

A couple of weeks after he met his father for the first time, he got a piano delivered to their residence. At first, he was confused, revealing he almost<em> "[told] the men on the wagon that they had made a mistake"</em>, his mother told him that it was actually a gift from his father.

The “two vast and trunkless legs of stone” (line 2) belong to .”From Ozymandias “
wel
What is your question
Vast means too large to see and trunk less means Legs without a body. If referring to problems that is a figurative way of saying it is too large of a problem and being trunkless means no substance. And too many little things building up to too many things.
Lots of interpretations above without a question or context. Sorry I wasn’t much more of a help

Read the excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone by James Cross Giblin.
azamat

Answer: The right answer is "moving from the details of the individual hieroglyphics to the big picture of hieroglyphics being both representations of sounds and symbols."

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, in this excerpt from James Cross Giblin's entertaining account of the discovery of the Rosetta Stone and its translation by French historian Jean François Champollion (1790-1832), the narrator is pointing out that reflecting upon the hieroglyphs further gave Champollion a chance to understand that, far from simply representing the sounds that identified the names of the pharaohs, or, as some scholars thought, having solely a symbolic meaning, hieroglyphs were both sounds and symbols. He, therefore, advanced the knowledge on the spoken language of ancient Egypt.
