When they actually struck her, people shouted their approval.” (pg. 26) </span><span>“For us it meant true equality: nakedness. We trembled in the cold.” (pg. 35) </span><span>“We were incapable of thinking. Our senses numbed, everything was fading into a fog. We no longer clung to anything.” (pg. 36) </span><span>“The Kapos were beating us again, I no longer felt the pain.” (pg. 36) </span><span>“In a few seconds, we had ceased to be men. Had the situation not been so tragic, we might have laughed. We looked pretty strange!” (pg. 36) </span><span>“I became A-7713. From then on, I had no other name.” (pg. 42) </span>“At that moment in time, all that mattered to me was my daily bowl of soup, my crust of stale bread. The bread, the soup- those were my entire life. I was nothing but a body. Perhaps even less: a famished stomach. The stomach alone was measuring time.” (pg. 52)<span>“I had watched it all happening without moving. I kept silent. In fact, I thought of stealing away in order not to suffer the blows. What’s more, if I felt anger at that moment, it was not directed at the Kapo but at my father. Why couldn't he have avoided Idek’s wrath? That was what life in a concentration camp had made of me…” (pg. 54)</span><span>“We didn't know what to do.

But who would dare?” (pg. 59) </span><span>“Fear was greater than hunger.” (pg. 59) </span><span>“A man appeared, crawling snakelike in the direction of the cauldrons. Hundreds of eyes were watching his every move. Hundreds of men were crawling with him, scraping their bodies with his on the stones. All hearts trembled, but mostly with envy. He was the one who had dared.” (pg. 59) </span><span>“Jealousy devoured us, consumed us. We never thought to admire him. Poor hero committing suicide for a ration or two more of soup… In our minds, he was already dead.” (pg. 59)</span></span>
The correct answer is metaphor. A metaphor is a rhetorical figure of speech where two or more things are symbolically compared, without using the words such as like or as (because that would be a simile).
