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.

cause it is talking about how they have known each other for so long but never really talked and that its good to let people know how u feel "It helps you to let off steam."


Peter. I suppose you miss your friends and all.

Anne. It isn't just . . . (She breaks off, staring up at him for a second.) Isn't it funny, you and I? Here we’ve been seeing each other every minute for almost a year and a half, and this is the first time we've ever really talked. It helps a lot to have someone to talk to, don't you think? It helps you to let off steam.(continued)

Peter (Going to the door). Well, any time you want to let off steam, you can come into my room.

Anne (Following him). I can get up an awful lot of steam. You'll have to be careful how you say that.

Peter. It’s all right with me.

Anne. Do you mean it?

Peter. I said it, didn’t I?

your welcome have a wonderful day

Read the excerpt from "Save the Coral Reefs.”
svetoff [14.1K]
<span>Q1: The ability of an ecosystem to recover from damage.
In the text, it says "the resiliency of the reefs". From this we know that resiliency is a trait that the reefs have. In the next sentence, we see the context clues that define resiliency when it states "reefs bounce back-even flourish." When someone or something bounces back it recovers and returns to it's previous state.

Q2: to inform readers about how the coral reefs are being destroyed AND to convince readers that practices that destroy coral reefs must be stopped.
It is a "Check All That Apply" so more than one answer can be chosen. The passage title is "Save the Coral Reefs" and the selection ends with the sentence "More can be done now to help the coral reefs bounce back". These clues tell the reader that the author's purpose is to save the reefs. In order to do this the author needs to first explain how the reefs are being destroyed. Then convince readers to save the reefs by stopping the practices that destroy them.

Q3: "could help save" and "unsubstantiated risks".
It is important to pay attention to the question here. It is asking for phrases that support safety - not necessarily nutrition. A pixie stick is safe to eat, but not nutritious. The phrase "could help save" supports the idea that it is safe because it is being defined as possibly life and eye-saving. "Unsubstantiated risks" also shows safety because it state that any risks have not been proven and are therefore unfounded. Some of the other phrases such as "more vitamin A" and "more nutritious" support the argument that the food is healthier but are not used to specifically explain how safe it is.</span>
