Answer:

the rationale for the Holocaust will always be incomprehensible.

Explanation:

In the excerpt from "All Rivers Run to the Sea," the author Elie Wiesel strives to make sense of the traumatic impact of what he experienced during the Holocaust. In that matter, he describes the brutality in Birkenau and comes to the conclusion that none of the survivors can work out a logic reason for all the deaths and suffering.

A prodigious man slept in this cave alone, and took his flocks to graze afield—remote from all companions, knowing none but sava
jolli1 [7]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Paraphrase the passage below from The Odyssey: A Prodigious Man Slept in this cave alone and took his flocks to graze afield remote from all companions  knowing none but savage ways a brute so huge he seemed no man at all of those who eat good wheaten bread but he seemed rather a shaggy mountian reared in solitude.

Answer:

It was common for a large, crude and un-civilized man to sleep alone in a cave after taking his livestock to eat the vegetation they needed, away from people. The man did not know how to live in a civilized way, he did not know how to eat properly and he did not even behave like a human being, he did not even look like one, he looked more like a wild, furry and little sociable animal.

Explanation:

A paraphrase happens when you take a passage written by an author and rewrite it by modifying the words, but maintaining the same meaning as the passage, as shown above, where a paraphrase was made of the description of Cyclops Polyphemus, from the original text of " Odyssey".

It is important to note that the paraphrase is not a summary but an adaptation of the original text. In addition, the paraphrase should always be referenced, placing the author's name and page number where it is possible to find the original text.
