Answer:
It would be hard to find a European city that has a worse reputation than <u>Bartovia's</u>, with crime, rubbish, graffiti and dereliction featuring in every description over the last 60 years. With unemployment running at 11% and the city government essentially bankrupt, there are few bright spots in <u>Bartovia's </u>future. One of the few, however, is a new venture run by Sergio Leone, who has returned to the city of his birth to try and make the impossible a reality. Along with tanning (the process of treating animal <u>skins</u> to produce leather), dyeing has a long and glorious history in Bartovia. The difference today, though, is that <u>Sergio Leone's</u> mission is to bring to a centuries-old tradition the very latest bleeding-edge technology.
If I bolded and underlined the word, it means I either added one or took it out. I added 3 and took out 1. Skins is the one I took out, the rest I put in.
Let me Know I I am right. :)
It is illogical because it relies on faulty reasoning
This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Read the excerpt from chapter 7 of Night.
Meir Katz remained on the train. The last day had been the most lethal. We had been a hundred or so in this wagon. Twelve of us left it. Among them, my father and myself.
The author’s main purpose in this excerpt is to show that ______
A) few survived the horrific train ride.
B) the author and his father were safe.
C) Meir Katz was not as strong as he seemed.
D) Meir Katz was left behind to remove the dead.
Answer:
The author’s main purpose in this excerpt is to show that A) few survived the horrific train ride.
Explanation:
This excerpt makes one clear point. It's main purpose is to show how horrific the train ride was, especially its last night. Out of a hundred people who had been in the wagon, only 12 left. The author does mention that him and his father were safe. Yet, the most important piece of information - and the most shocking one - is how many people died. Therefore, letter A is the best option.
<u><em>The Rosetta stone is the code that revealed the mystery of Egyptian hieroglyphics allowing to the archeologist and to the scholars to read and interpreting inscriptions and reliefs like texts and tombs in a modern understanding.

Dr. Heidegger's Experiment is a brief story by American author Nathaniel Hawthorne, about a doctor who pretends to have been sent water from the Fountain of Youth.Dr. Heidegger's Experiment is rooted in a fairly realistic view of human nature.
