<span><span>“There no longer was any distinction between rich and poor, notables and the others; we were all people condemned to the same fate-still unknown.” (pg. 21)
</span><span>“Once again, the young men bound and gagged her. 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. Tired of huddling on the ground, in hope of finding something, a piece of bread, perhaps, that a civilian might have forgotten there.” (pg. 56)
</span><span>“Now I understood why Idek refused to leave us in the camp. He moved one hundred prisoners so that he could copulate with this girl! It struck me as terribly funny and I burst out laughing.” (pg. 57)
</span><span>“I no longer felt anything except the lashes of the whip… Only the first really hurt.” (pg. 57)
</span><span>“Two cauldrons of soup! Smack in the middle of the road, two cauldrons of soup with no one to guard them! A royal feast going to waste! Supreme temptation! Hundreds of eyes were looking at them, shining with desire. Two lambs with hundreds of wolves lying in wait for them. Two lambs without a shepherd, free for the taking. 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>

Why car is a greatest invention than telephone?
baherus [9]

Answer:

See explanation for answer.

Explanation:

I personally beleive that the invention of the car is greater than the invention of the telephone because of the oppurtunities cars give us today. While both cars and telephones have evolved so much over the past several years cars give people the oppurtunity to commute faster to plces, and visit people and places. Whereas a phone may help you keep in contact electronically but can not get you anywhere physically. Then again as far as which invention is more beneficial overall I would say the telephone because it doesn't contribute to global warming like car gasoline does and has revolutionized the ways people keep in contact with each other. Anyways, I hope this helps!

Read the excerpt from “All Summer in a Day” by Ray Bradbury. It had been raining for seven years; thousands upon thousands of da
Natalka [10]

Answer:

The imagery Bradbury uses in the line suggests:

The rain destroys the forests but they grow back.

Explanation:

The line we are supposed to analyze is:

<em>A thousand forests had been crushed under the rain and grown up a thousand times to be crushed again.</em>

The first option states the forests are overgrown, but the line makes it clear that the rain keeps on crushing, destroying the forests. Therefore, we can eliminate it.

The second option states the planet is covered with forests. However, for the same reason mentioned above, this is incorrect. The rain does not allow the forests to persist.

The fourth option states that the rain falls nonstop. This information is correct, but it is not the focus of the imagery in the specific line we are analyzing here. The focus is the forests, not the rain.

Thus, the third option is the best one. The forests do grow back. They are crushed again, that's for sure, but somehow they still manage to grow back.
