This question refers to the text The Flight from Conversation by Sherry Turkle
.
Answer:
With this phrase Turkle means that because of technology, we are all alone since every time we share less with people in a physical way and we do it more in a virtual way. But since it's something we all do, she says we're in this together. That's why she uses the phrase <em>"alone together."</em>
Explanation:
These words have a great influence on what the whole article is, since she wants to emphasize that really the vast majority of people are in this situation.
People just want to pay attention to what interests them, ignoring everything that doesn't.
This means that we all get more and more into technology and ignore the people around us, just to communicate virtually.
We are alone, but together at the same time because we remain connected even though we are immersed in technology.
Answer:
Through Akerblad’s actions, Giblin shows him as someone whose confidence eventually stood in the way of his success.
Explanation:
James Cross Giblin's work <em>The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone</em> is a historical work on the deciphered work of the Rosetta Stone that was discovered in Memphis. This historical stone laid the foundation for the understanding of the Egyptian language and scripts.
The given passage talks about Johan Akerblad, a Swedish student studying under Silvestre de Sacy. The passage details how his previous successes led him to make a mistake while deciphering the Stone. Through his actions, Giblin presents him as someone whose confidence in always succeeding led him to be adamant, thus obstructing him in the way of successfully deciphering the hieroglyphic. He made a mistake in claiming that the demotic hieroglyphic is alphabetic, leading to <em>"no further progress in deciphering the demotic passage on the Stone".

Answer:
jumble the words together in the description
convey the main character’s chaotic mental state
Explanation:
This is a way that the writer shows us a complex connection of the many, many pieces around that make a living, complicated whole that we are not supposed to understand, but perceive as confusing and beyond our grasp. This is also a way to show the mind of the character: <em>"[...]and a thousand parts too small or two complex or too divorced from their origin or context or too specialized and thus identifiable only by their creator"</em>
Literature and the Holocaust have a complicated relationship. This isn't to say, of course, that the pairing isn't a fruitful one—the Holocaust has influenced, if not defined, nearly every Jewish writer since, from Saul Bellow to Jonathan Safran Foer, and many non-Jews besides, like W.G. Sebald and Jorge Semprun. Still, literature qua art—innately concerned with representation and appropriation—seemingly stands opposed to the immutability of the Holocaust and our oversized obligations to its memory. Good literature makes artistic demands, flexes and contorts narratives, resists limpid morality, compromises reality's details. Regarding the Holocaust, this seems unconscionable, even blasphemous. The horrors of Auschwitz and Buchenwald need no artistic amplification.
