ILL MARK BRAINLIEST!! <33


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

Some of these scholars made otherwise significant contributions to the world's knowledge of ancient Egypt. A German priest of the 1600s, Athanasius Kircher, wrote the first grammar and vocabulary of Coptic, the language of Christian Egypt. These books were to prove of great value when the hieroglyphs were eventually deciphered.

But Kircher's ideas about the hieroglyphs themselves were even farther off the mark than those of Horapollo. Looking at a certain group of symbols—which actually stood for the name of a pharaoh—Kircher let his imagination run wild. Without any evidence to support him, he said that the hieroglyphs meant "The blessings of the god Osiris are to be procured by means of sacred ceremonies, in order that the benefits of the river Nile may be obtained."

From 1650 onward, Kircher produced several volumes of such nonsense. It earned him a reputation for being an expert on the hieroglyphs—a reputation that lasted, unfortunately, long after his death in 1680.

Which sentence from this excerpt is a fact?

What are the ""agencies"" to which Carson refers (para. 33)? Why are they reduced to ""so- called control agencies""?

Answers

Answer:

1. the state and federal agencies;

2. because they are ignorant of the effects of the chemicals.

Explanation:

1. The context of her statements shows she was referring to the state and federal agencies who were mandated and overzealous about getting rid of insects they deemed harmful. She said,

"The crusade to create a chemically sterile, insect free world seems to have engendered a fanatic  zeal on the part of many specialists and most of  the so-called control agencies," she clarified who she was referring to when she said, "The  most flagrant abuses go unchecked in both state  and federal agencies."

2. By calling them "control agencies" Carson was revealing that they (the state and federal agencies) were as she put it, "wholly ignorant of their  potentials for harm." That is, they were ignorant of the harmful effects that those chemicals which they advocated for had on the environment. All they knew and were concerned about was to control insects.

"Politics and the English Language" (1946) is an essay by George Orwell that criticized the “ugly and inaccurate” written English of his time and examines the connection between political orthodoxies and the debasement of language.

"The People of the Abyss" (1903)  and "To Build a Fire" (1908) were short stories by Jack London, an American author, which chronicled the life of the middle-class people in the East End of London in 1902.

"His head barely reaches my waist, but he plies his legs with great activity--circling around me, climbing onto low rocks, picking up sticks to throw downhill."

As they continue their movement along the path, the uncle begins to reflect on what would happen to him physically when he continues to grow old. After observing the way leaves change their color from green in the spring to brown in the autumn, he said within himself,

"I wonder if I am undergoing a similar change. As the urgency of my own green force abates, will formerly obscure aspects of my nature come to light? What will be revealed? Will my aging include the unveiling of a whole new palette of colors, and not a simple fade to gray?

Finally, they both headed "all back to the house where the family waits with dinner".

Explanation:

Answer/explanation:

I happen to be a straight A student, so I'd be glad to teach you some tips.

1.) Get good sleep - You cannot expect to be ready to work when you are tired and/or stay up all night. Getting a good night sleep (especially on schedule) will allow you to feel refreshed in the morning.

2.) Create a schedule - From personal experience, I know that setting a time when you work every day (about 5 hours or more if needed) then you will have time to rest, and will be orderly. It might take time, but you'll get used to it.

3.) Don't overwork yourself - Although working is great, too much of a good thing is almost always a bad thing. You won't feel like doing your work if you spend one day of the week working dawn till dust. This is exactly why schedules are so great: you make sure that you don't work too much.
