Read this excerpt from Elie Wiesel's Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech: Of course, since I am a Jew profoundly rooted in my pe

oples' memory and tradition, my first response is to Jewish fears, Jewish needs, Jewish crises. For I belong to a traumatized generation, one that experienced the abandonment and solitude of our people. It would be unnatural for me not to make Jewish priorities my own: Israel, Soviet Jewry, Jews in Arab lands . . . But there are others as important to me. Apartheid is, in my view, as abhorrent as anti-Semitism. To me, Andrei Sakharov's isolation is as much of a disgrace as Josef Biegun's imprisonment. As is the denial of Solidarity and its leader Lech Walesa's right to dissent. And Nelson Mandela's interminable imprisonment. Why does Wiesel present this personal information first?
A. To demonstrate that he can be a fun speaker.
B. To demonstrate that he is intelligent.
C. To demonstrate that he likes other people.
D. To demonstrate that he can relate to being oppressed.
 
the answer is D for future students

Answer:  D. To demonstrate that he can relate to being oppressed

Explanation: In this excerpt from Elie Wiesel's Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, he presents his personal information first <u><em>to demonstrate that he can relate to being oppressed</em></u>. Wiesel presents his personal information first because as a survivor of the Holocaust he wants to tell people that neutrality favours the oppressor and silence encourages the tormentor. So he took side for all the people that suffer oppression around the world.
