From the twenty-fifth century BCE, pharaohs' tombs were located inside grand pyramids. The pyramids served as giant grave markers; however, they also served as treasure markers for grave robbers. These wicked people would strip the tomb bare of valuables. Then they would sell the stolen items for a large amount of money. Stealing from the dead was bad enough, but for the ancient egyptians, the act also threatened the pharaoh's afterlife.
The answer is ( B grave robbers were unconcerned about the pharaoh's afterlife), tell me why B is correct?
Answer:
As ancient Egyptian rulers, pharaohs were both the heads of state and the religious leaders of their people. The word “pharaoh” means “Great House,” a reference to the palace where the pharaoh resides. While early Egyptian rulers were called “kings,” over time, the name “pharaoh” stuck.
Explanation:
Answer: B
Explanation: "They went to great lengths to ensure that their tombs were prepared for the afterlife by placing valuables inside." Makes perfect sense. The text shows the evidence for it, since the text mainly talks about valuables inside, and the afterlife. Im also pretty sure that it would take great lengths to get these valuables.
No one knows for sure what causes the Catatumbo Lightning. Some scientists think it's caused by increased amounts of methane gas around the area. Others believe the lightning occurs because of the area's unique location—the very hot, humid air from the Catatumbo River and Lake Maracaibo meets cool air that comes down from the Andes mountains. 9 The mystery of what causes the lightning deepened when, beginning in January 2010, the lightning did not appear for a period of several months. During this time Venezuela, like many other parts of the world, was experiencing abnormal weather patterns, and the country was suffering from a severe drought. Some scientists speculate that this may have caused the Catatumbo Lightning to stop, but the answer remains unclear. Whatever the cause, the lightning resumed that April. main idea
Answer:
What causes the Catatumbo Lightning.
Explanation:
The main idea of the text is what causes the Catatumbo Lightning since, after the first sentence, there are several theories that scientists proposed for the cause of this phenomenon and more information about events related to the Catatumbo Lightning that also increased the mystery around the climate phenomenon.

Fall of the House of Usher, excerpt
By Edgar Allan Poe
The room in which I found myself was very large and lofty. The windows were long, narrow, and pointed, and at so vast a distance from the black oaken floor as to be altogether inaccessible from within. Feeble gleams of encrimsoned light made their way through the trellised panes, and served to render sufficiently distinct the more prominent objects around; the eye, however, struggled in vain to reach the remoter angles of the chamber, or the recesses of the vaulted and fretted ceiling. Dark draperies hung upon the walls. The general furniture was profuse, comfortless, antique, and tattered. Many books and musical instruments lay scattered about, but failed to give any vitality to the scene. I felt that I breathed an atmosphere of sorrow. An air of stern, deep, and irredeemable gloom hung over and pervaded all.

Soft or silken tofu is, as the names suggest, the most delicate tofu variety. It retains a great deal of moisture and has a creamy texture similar to custard. Soft tofu is often used in soups and blended dishes. In Japan, soft tofu is usually topped with soy sauce and eaten like a pudding.

You recently left an item ( example, a book, musical instrument etc) on a bus on your way home from school. Write a letter to your cousin who lives in a different town describing what happened after you discovered that you had lost the item.
Answer and Explanation:
Dear…,
Remember how you’re always telling me I am the most forgetful person you have ever met? Well, I guess that must be true. I myself have never met anyone more prone to forgetting things than I am.
Last week, on my way home from school, I left my backpack inside the bus. I know it sounds insane. How can someone coming back from school forget a whole backpack, filled with books, and not notice it until much later? As I said, you were right about me.
I only noticed it was missing when, after dinner, I decided to get started on my English essay. I had brought the books I would need with me – or, at least, I though I had. When I entered my room and walked toward the spot on the floor where I usually drop my backpack once I get home, I realized what had happened.
You can imagine my despair. Precious books, notes, and a couple of devices, all lost at once. It was a nightmare. And you can also imagine how much I feared telling mom. I knew there would be a whole lecture on how little attention I pay to things, on how irresponsible I can be sometimes…
I told her anyway. She did not lecture me. I was shocked. Instead, she helped me contact the people who could help. This was not the school bus, but a regular one. It turns out they had found and kept my backpack. All was good.
Or so I thought. Once it was all solved and I had my backpack lying on my lap while mom drove us both back home, the lecture finally happened. I can’t say I was annoyed or angry. Just embarrassed. And your words, my dear cousin, kept popping in my mind all the while. I don’t ever want to go through this again. I promise to pay more attention from now on.
