Hello. The full question is:
When he's speaking of his time in the camps hoping for rescue, Wiesel writes, "If they knew, we thought, surely those leaders would have moved heaven and earth to intervene." What kind of figurative language is this (metaphor, personification, hyperbole)? How does it support Wiesel's main ideas about indifference?
Answer:
metaphor
Explanation:
Wiesel uses metaphor to compare the indifference of political leaders to the lack of information about what was happening in the Nazi concentration camps. And it shows that the people who had the power to intervene in the atrocities that were happening to the Jews, did not, in fact, know how this situation was happening and that was why they were indifferent and did not present any concern or intervention.
The metaphor is a figure of speech that promotes an implicit or explained relationship between two elements that have some kind of relationship.
The A because visited is a action verb
Answer:
<u>This quote can be broken down into two parts:
</u>
the first :
who does not examine does not believe.
it means that whoever does not check a hypothesis will not believe it
"I have no proof so I do not believe it" if you do not try to check ... it's not going to change.
the second part:
who does not doubt not examine.
he who is persuaded to be right is not even going to be able to make a mistake.
"Why waste my time to check since I'm sure I'm right?"
suddenly the first will never progress since if he doubts everything without ever checking ... he will continue to doubt and that's all
and the second who does not doubt anything (and especially not him) will not progress because he does not consider that things could be otherwise or that he could make a mistake, as small as it is.
