Answer:

D. Neither the children nor their mother hides her delight at receiving presents.

Explanation:

In any sentence which uses the "neither...nor" form, it is mandatory to see the structure of the sentence first. Neither....nor is a comparing word which is also a negative form.

Whenever the 'neither...nor' form is used, the verb form will be based on the subject nearest to it. The subject-verb agreement will depend on the singularity/plural form of the subject involved. In the sentence, the verb "hide(s)" will be judged or used based on the nearest subject which is "mother" thus making it singular. So, the verb will become "hides" and followed by the pronoun "her" instead of the plural "their" for "mother" is singular.

Thus, the sentence

<em>Neither the children nor their</em><u><em> mother hides her</em></u><em> delight at receiving presents</em>

is deemed the correct answer.

Lemur [1.5K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you forgot to include the options for this question, we can answer the following.

In the evacuation scene in Night, Rabbi Eliahu's son purposely leaves him behind after loyally staying by his side for three years. This demonstration of the son's character conveys a theme of this memoir in that the son's disloyalty shows that in the concentration camps, human decency was strained past the breaking point.

Jewish writer Elis Wiesel was the author of the story "Night." A survivor from the Holocaust during World War II, Elis describes the life of his father and he, in the terrible concentration camps of Buchenwald and Auschwitz, during the years 1944 and 1945.

That horrible experiences are portrayed in "Night," a story that reveals how people could lose their values, loyalty, and dignity in order to survive.
