The textual evidence is as follows;
"The Lawyer asks him: "What earthly right have you to stay here? Do you pay any rent? Do you pay any taxes? Or is this property yours?"
Bar.tleby makes no response, and the Lawyer becomes resigned to the idea that Bar.tleby will simply haunt his office, doing nothing.
The Lawyer believes he is doing a good, Christian thing by allowing Bar.tleby to continue existing in his office."
<h3>Who is Bar.tleby?</h3>
From the text "Bar.tleby, the Scrivener: A Story of Wall Street", Bar.tleby is an old scrivener at The Lawyer's office, Turkey. He is cheerful and productive until midday, when he gets dru.nk, grumpy, and basically worth.less.

Answer:
b. Because none of the precautions they took were effective, the pharaohs found a new burial ground in the Valley of the Kings.
Explanation:
According to the excerpt from "Egyptian Tombs: A Grave Matter,” the cause-effect relationship is illustrated in the fact that pharaohs understood their burial places were in danger of thieves, so they decided protect their tombs and treasures in the Valley of the Kings, whose location was much harder for thieves to break in.
Wordiness
The word "sometimes" eliminates the need for "every now and then," making the sentence wordy.
