Perseverance and Focusing on an Objective: Viewpoint in The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone

Question 3 • Common Core ELA 7 A-IC

Which statement is an opinion?

Answer
A
It is roughly the size of a tabletop . . .
B
[T]his rather small piece of rock was more valuable than any of the larger objects in the room.
C
Next to the statues and the head
D
three feet nine inches long, two feet four and a half inches wide, and eleven inches thick.

Explanation

Choice B is an opinion because saying the rock was “more valuable than any of the larger objects” expresses a judgment about its worth, not a measurement that can be directly verified. The other choices describe size or location using observable details.
