题目

According to the professor, what led to the decoding of the Rosetta Stone?

A hieroglyph that represented the name of a person.

A written and oral description of a historical event.

The realization that each hieroglyph represented a different object or concept.

The discovery that the word for "Sun" is written the same way in Greek, demotic, and hieroglyphics.

题目解析

Professor: Thomas Young focused his attention on one set of hieroglyphs that he thought would probably spell out a single word, the name of a king or queen. Champollion built on Young's work … Was this, Champollion wondered, the name Rameses? He was eventually able to confirm that it was. So, he had figured it out. A lot of work remained, but Champollion had cracked the code. Young 专注研究一组象形文字，他认为可能是一个国王或王后的名字。Champollion 基于 Yang 的研究，最终确定那是一个 Rameses 名字，破译了罗塞塔石碑。由此可知是 Young 破译出象形文字代表人名奠定了罗塞塔石碑破译的基础，所以 A 选项正确。

答案: A
