Which excerpt from the riddle of the rosetta stone shows a cause-and-effect relationship? “the group traveled up the nile in two boats, stopping along the way to copy inscriptions on temples and monuments.” “a few experts challenged champollion's methods and clung to the notion that the hieroglyphs had a purely symbolic meaning.” “scribes generally used the hieratic form when they were writing on papyrus, and hieroglyphs when they were carving inscriptions in plaster or limestone.” “once they had mastered the three kinds of egyptian writing, nineteenth-century scholars had the key to more than three thousand years of egyptian history.”

The right answer is the D) “Once they had mastered the three kinds of Egyptian writing, nineteenth-century scholars had the key to more than three thousand years of Egyptian history.”

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that this is the passage that shows such relationship, since once they had mastered Egyptian writing (cause), 19th-century scholars were finally able to start understanding three thousand years of Egyptian history (effect). One fact caused the other. If you look closely at the other options, you can see that there is no cause-and-effect relationship in what they describe. In option A it is said that a group of people traveled up the Nile and that they copied inscriptions along the way; these are two causes. Option B simply describe two facts: some experts discredited Champollion's methods (fact 1) and they continued to believe that the hieroglyphs had a purely symbolic meaning (fact 2). The same can be said of option C: scribes employed the hieratic form when writing on papyrus (idea 1) and hieroglyphs when they were carving inscriptions in plaster or limestone (idea 2).

(D) Once they had mastered the three kinds of Egyptian writing, nineteenth-century scholars had the key to more than three thousand years of Egyptian history
