Character is defined as "the mental and moral qualities distinctive to an individual". This quote is suggesting that your true character is shown when you aren't around other people; when you're alone (hence "in the dark"; no one can see you wen you're alone). Peer pressure might cause you to hide you true feelings or conform to what others are thinking, when you're with other people.

In Night, why was Moshe the Beadle forced to leave Sighet by Hungarian police?

tamaranim1 [39]

In 'Night', the narrator is Eliezer, a Hungarian boy who was 12 years old at the moment and who was living in Sighet. This town was part of Hungary during World War II, at the time this story was set (on the contrary now it is in Romania).

Moshe the Beadle was Eliezer's teacher of Jewish doctrine and, in fact, he was an inspiring and challenging educator for this kid. All foreign Jews were sent out of town by the Hungarian police, including Moshe, as part of the anti-Semitic acts generalized all over the nazi Europe. Hungary was one of Germany's allies during World War II, and obeyed the type of politics fostered by Hitler, contributing to spread attacks against Jews and ejections within its territory.

Name one of the Bad Writing/Good Writing pairs listed in your textbook and explain how that pair affects style

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Wordiness

Explanation:

In writing style, it is really important to consider the most appropriate words choice in order to communicate the right message to the reader. This is a matter that can result subjective, because it depends, in great sense, of the writers' opinions.

Wordiness is one of the important points to be considered when writing, since it refers to the excessive use of words to say something that could be said in a simpler way. Qualifiers and redundant pais are some examples that can be presented in this category. For example:

Bad writing:

It is completely necessary that the report be presented this afternoon considering the fact that the last deadline for submission is met today.

Good writing:

The report needs to be presented this afternoon, because today is the deadline.

In this case, the same message has been transmitted to the reader in a clear way using less words.
