Read the excerpt from “egyptian tombs: a grave matter.”

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 tombs bare of all 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.

based on this excerpt, readers can infer that

stolen goods from the tombs were difficult to sell.
grave robbers were unconcerned about the pharaohs’ afterlife.
grave robbers were severely punished for their crimes.
none of the pharaohs would experience an eternal afterlife.

Second Option: Grave robbers were unconcerned about the pharaohs’ afterlife.

Explanation:

As mentioned in the excerpt these people were wicked. Hence there are not likely to have any concern about anyone's afterlife. If they had any concerns for pharaohs’ afterlife like Egyptians did, they would not have dug their graves and stolen treasure.

First option is not correct because it is not mentioned in the excerpt. The diggers sold the stolen items in large amount of money, which shows it was not that difficult.

Option three and four are not mentioned in the excerpt.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
