Read the excerpt from the riddle of the rosetta stone.

next to the statues and the head, the slab seems unimpressive at first glance. it is roughly the size of a tabletop—three feet nine inches long, two feet four and a half inches wide, and eleven inches thick. but many experts would say that this rather small piece of rock was more valuable than any of the larger objects in the room. for it is the famed rosetta stone, which gave nineteenth-century scholars their first key to the secrets of ancient egypt.

which words in the excerpt best show that giblin views the rosetta stone as very important?
statues and unimpressive
more valuable and famed
rather small and piece of rock
larger objects and scholars

Have you ever thought you understood a person based on a story that you have heard about them? have you ever guessed about a person's personal life because of the clothes they wore? or, have you judged a person because of their friends? although classifying people in this way is typically discouraged, authors deliberately use your preconceived ideas to you form an opinion about the character or to at least have a better understanding. can you think of a time that you made a character call about someone based on external aspects? were you correct, or incorrect? has anyone ever made an incorrect assessment of you based on external aspects? write two paragraphs about it in your journal.
