HELPPPPP!!! Read the excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone.

Young made several mistakes. He thought the third hieroglyph was part of the one for "T," whereas it actually stood for
the vowel "O"." The fourth hieroglyph, the lion, meant just "L," the fifth meant “M," and the last hieroglyph stood simply
for "S." In other words, the spelling in Egyptian was "Ptolmis," not "Ptolemaios."
Which statement best describes this excerpt?
This excerpt is biased because it reflects an attitude about Young's actions.
This excerpt is biased because it reflects an attitude about Egyptian spelling.
O This excerpt is unbiased because it provides opinions about Egyptian spelling.
O This excerpt is unbiased because it provides details about Young's actions.

Answer:

I'm pretty sure it's "This excerpt is unbiased because it provides details about Young's actions."

Step-by-step explanation:

The excerpt is stating what mistakes Young is making. It isn't reflecting an attitude or providing an opinion about Egyptian spelling. Also, I don't think it reflects an attitude towards Young's actions as it is simply stating that he made many mistakes.
