Read the excerpt from the riddle of the rosetta stone by james cross giblin. de guignes guessed rightly that the cartouches in hieroglyphic inscriptions were intended to draw attention to important names, probably the names of egyptian rulers. along with such insights, de guignes advanced other ideas about the hieroglyphs that were as silly as any that had been proposed by kircher or horapollo. after comparing some egyptian hieroglyphs with examples of chinese picture writing, de guignes announced that settlers from egypt must have colonized china in ancient times. what ideas of de guignes differed sharply from the author’s? a egyptian society used picture writing. b chinese society used hieroglyphs. c cartouches were part of hieroglyphic inscriptions. d egyptian settlers had colonized china. which statement best describes the theme of the article “winter weather: outdoor safety”?

D Egyptian settlers had colonized China.

Explanation:

The idea that differed sharply from the author's is that egyptian settlers had colonized China as the author says in the excerpt that de Guignes had some ideas about the hieroglyphs that were silly and mentions this idea as a prove of that.

we know that, volume of a rectangular prism is given by :

✿   {length × width × height}

given : the length of rectangular prism = 5.5

given : the width of rectangular prism = 6

given : the height of rectangular prism = 3

⇒ the volume of given rectangular prism = {5.5 × 6 × 3}

⇒ the volume of given rectangular prism = 99

hello,

your answer is a) the metaphor suggests that the poetic themes are serious and dark.

collins is comparing the poem to a dark room. he is suggesting that the poems theme is serious and wants you to understand it. you don't need to understand the poet in order to understand the poem. you also don't need to move around while reading it. he is simply saying the poem has a dark and serious theme.
