The sentence from the passage which offers support for the thesis, "The writings paint a detailed portrait that shows daily life in ancient Egypt to be surprisingly quaint and free" is, "They uncovered tens of thousands of scrolls that contain information about daily life."

Answer: Option D.

Explanation:

Thesis statement is the one which focuses on the main idea of the text. The thesis statement of the passage is about how the writings depicted the day to day life of ancient Egypt. So the statement which goes with the thesis statement is 'They uncovered tens of thousands of scrolls that contain information about daily life.' This sentence provides the information regarding the thesis statement. The other mentioned options on the other hand are about construction of tombs, love stories, and workers strike which doesn't support the thesis statement.

NikAS [45]

<span>A. Technological advancement is a side effect of military efforts to win wars. </span>

 

<span>In the passage “How the Internet and Other Technologies Came About,” readers are presented with the rationale for the development of the internet, virtual reality, and GPS.  A type of communications web (or net) was developed, broken down into pieces across the nation, so communication could remain intact should a nuclear war destroy one component (or geographic location).  Flight simulators were developed in order to help train pilots to fly in conditions brought about by nuclear war.  Guidance satellites were developed in order to guide missiles to targets.  All of these advancements were a side effect of military efforts to win wars—the communications web became the internet, flight simulators became virtual reality, and guidance satellites developed into GPS.</span>
