were given which one of following names by of British books, often those published by John
Frank Gilbreth? Newbery, the first publisher to produce books aimed
primarily at diverting a child audience. Ultimately,
however, it was not the cheerful, commercial-minded
Newhery, but Anglo-Irish author Maria Edgeworth
who had the strongest influence on this period of
American children's literature. The eighteenth century
had seen a gradual shift away from the spiritual
intensity of earlier American religious writings for
children, toward a more generalized moralism.
Newbery notwithstanding, Americans still looked on
children's books as vehicles for instruction, not
amusement, though they would accept a moderate
amount of fictional entertainment for the sake of more
successful instruction.

have deciphered other ancient languages, such as
Sumerian, Akkadian, and Babylonian, which used the
cuneiform script, because of the fortuitous discovery
of bilingual inscriptions, When cuneiform tablets
were first discovered in the eighteenth century,
scholars could not decipher them. Then inscriptions
found in baa at the end of the eighteenth century
provided a link: these inscriptions were written in
cuneiform and in two other ancient languages, Old
Persian and New Elamite--languages that had already
been deciphered. It took several decades, but scholars
eventually translated the ancient cuneiform script via
the more familiar Old Persian language.

Passage 10:
There are two main hypotheses when it comes to
explaining the emergence of modern humans. The
‘Out of Africa’ theory holds that homo sapiens burst
onto the scene as a new species around 150,000 to
200,000 years ago in Africa and subsequently
replaced archaic humans such as the Neandertals. The
other model, known as multi-regional evolution or
regional continuity, posits far more ancient and
diverse roots for our kind.
1. The passage primarily discusses which of the
following (a) Evidence that supports the “Out
of Africa” theory
