Hello. The full question is:
When he's speaking of his time in the camps hoping for rescue, Wiesel writes, "If they knew, we thought, surely those leaders would have moved heaven and earth to intervene." What kind of figurative language is this (metaphor, personification, hyperbole)? How does it support Wiesel's main ideas about indifference?
Answer:
metaphor
Explanation:
Wiesel uses metaphor to compare the indifference of political leaders to the lack of information about what was happening in the Nazi concentration camps. And it shows that the people who had the power to intervene in the atrocities that were happening to the Jews, did not, in fact, know how this situation was happening and that was why they were indifferent and did not present any concern or intervention.
The metaphor is a figure of speech that promotes an implicit or explained relationship between two elements that have some kind of relationship.
The answer should be B.! I hope this helps!
Answer:
'The author uses the pronoun I and gives personal information about "hard days" and "scary times" in his past.'
'This indicates he is writing about a personal experience. Previous events that created "hard days" make the author appreciate peaceful days.'
Explanation:
A memoir is characterized as 'the form of narratives like biography or autobiography in which the author relates his/her personal experiences.' The use of first-person pronouns like 'I' and 'We' signal that the text is a memoir as it offers personal information regarding the 'scary or tough times' they have undergone in their past.
The description of the events like 'hard days' in the past clearly displays the author's idea of narrating his personal experience. The previous tough events also signal that the difficult times in life has taught the author to acknowledge and understand the worth of good times in life.
What paragraph? You didn't attach it. While can mean several things, so i can't really tell.
