In O'Brien's excerpt those sentences are: <span>In a way, it seemed, he was part of the morning fog, or my own imagination, but there was also the reality of what was happening in my stomach. This sentence evokes a bodily reaction and calls it "the reality". It is not just imagined; it really happens. </span><span>I tried to swallow whatever was rising from my stomach, which tasted like lemonade, something fruity and sour. It's as if his body has its own way of processing the distressing information. He feels a very specific kind of nausea, triggered by his mental processes.
In Steinbeck's excerpt it's these sentences: </span><span>In all kinds of combat the whole body is battered by emotion. The ductless glands pour their fluids into the system to make it able to stand up to the great demand on it. They describe a very physical reaction, which is a product of emotional distress. It's as if the body is trying to defend the whole system from detrimental factors.</span>
Answer:
The Franks, van Daans, and Dussel make a point to celebrate the holiday of Hanukkah because they want to celebrate life amidst the terrible times and death all around them.
Explanation:
In 'The Diary of A Young Girl', Anne Frank writes about the time in hiding when they celebrated two festivals. One of them was Hanukkah. Hanukkah is a Jewish festival celebrated for eight-days in remembrance of the rededication of Jerusalem temple in the Second century B. C.
Even while the Franks, van Daans, and Dussel were in hiding, they celebrated Hanukkah because they wanted to celebrate life. Even though they were surrounded by danger, they wanted to have some moment of joy, and Hanukkah gave them that joy.
