Answer:
The cremation of Jews in the concentration camps.
Explanation:
Elie Wiesel's "Hope, Despair, and Memory" is his Nobel Prize lecture where he recounts his personal experiences during the Holocaust. In his lecture, he tells what he had witnessed during the Nazi regime and how the things that he saw, the memories must serve as a reminder to humans to not repeat the horrendous acts.
In the given excerpt from the text, Wiesel talks of <em>"the survivors"</em> and the memories that they remember. Talking of the <em>"victims"</em>, he recounts the suffering of these people. And through his description, we can know that he is talking about the concentration camps and how people, irrespective of age and gender, are burned in the chambers.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
<span>In 'I, Too' by Langston Hughes, the speaker refers to 'they' frequently throughout to indication a polarisation between himself and wider 'America', the America that he, too, is a part of. In the last instance of this in the poem, the line is 'They'll see how beautiful I am/And be ashamed-' which implies that the bias held by wider America against him exists only because 'they' have not yet seen him for what he truly is.</span>
the answer is C Nevada I think (not really sure either c-Nevada or d-Carson City)
Answer:
A. It provides evidence in support of the thesis statement.
Explanation:
Choice B isn't correct because you shouldn't be making a direct statement containing the thesis in the second paragraph of your essay. That's supposed to be done in the introductory paragraph.
Choice C isn't correct because you restate your thesis in the <em>conclusion</em> of your essay, not in the second paragraph.
Choice D isn't correct because the thesis statement shouldn't be a question, it should be a claim--and there shouldn't be questions in an essay, unless very well written and rhetorical.
Therefore, Choice A is correct. The body paragraph of an essay should always provide evidence to back up the essay's main claim/thesis.
