In Night by Elie Wiesel, there are many facts and opinions that support the theme that in life-threatening circumstances, the instinct to survive overcomes everything else.


One fact that supports this theme is the following excerpt: “The Kapos were beating us again, but I no longer felt the pain.” This is a fact because describing the actions or behavior of individuals (“The Kapos were beating us again. . .”) is a tool that authors of memoirs use to include facts. This excerpt reflects the theme because Wiesel is not reacting to the pain in a way that he would have normally had he not been in a concentration camp. Because he will likely continue to face this type of extreme pain, his body is reacting to the pain in a way that will help Wiesel to survive, more or less, intact. One opinion that supports this theme is the following excerpt: “Our senses were numbed, everything was fading into a fog. We no longer clung to anything.” This is an opinion because author commentary and depictions of the author’s thoughts are tools that authors of memoirs use to include opinions. This excerpt reflects the theme because it presents the senses of everyone in the camp as being “numbed,” a way to help the mind deal with extreme circumstances.

<h2> Pt 1.</h2>

Sharing an apartment with a family member (or two) can be both a relief and a cause of stress. In the end, your experience living with a family roommate depends largely on the character of that family member and you. If you get along with the family member, you may find living with him or her much more comfortable than living with a stranger or even a friend. When you know and trust a family member who lives with you, you can be yourself around your roommate and you probably won’t have to worry about stolen items or finding out your roommate is a different person to live with than he or she is to hang out with. If you’re living with a sibling, a cousin or even a parent, it’s easy to fall into the habit of falling behind in your payments. After all, “families stick together,” so some irresponsible apartment dwellers might believe their family roommate can cover a “month or two” of rent payment, which turns into a few months more. Too afraid to cause family drama, the responsible roommate let him or herself be taken advantage of.

<h2>Pt 2.</h2>

Strong and positive family relationships are enjoyable for their own sake – it just feels good to be part of a warm and loving family.

But positive family relationships are important for lots of other reasons too.  They:

  • help children feel secure and loved, which gives them confidence to explore their world, try new things and learn
  • make it easier for your family to solve problems, resolve conflict and respect differences of opinion
  • give children the skills they need to build healthy relationships of their own.

I will put the rest in the comments since there is a typing limit, but I hope this helps and I always appreciate Brainliest! ;)
