Natali [406]

Answer:

Before arriving to the United States, Gurung's life was always in danger: "Many of us were tortured and imprisoned. We had no choice but to flee to Nepal to save our lives".

He was from Bhutan but he had to go to Nepali's refugee camps. After twenty years, he decided to move to the United States. In the US, he kept struggling, he couldn't find a job and he didn't speak the language: "But here in the United States, my community continues to struggle. We arrived in the U.S. when the economy was at its lowest point, so we struggle to find jobs. Many of us do not speak English, and lack of education makes it even more difficult for us to learn (...)".

However, Gurung explains that he now helps other refugees to have a successful transition between the place where they come from and the United States and he's very happy about it and about his family.

3. What are some ways that Wiesel and the other Jews at the camps try to observe their
uysha [10]

Answer:

Elie and the other Jewish prisoners in the camp practiced their faith in as much as they can, praying before eating, singing songs before sleeping, observing the important festivals, etc.

But as the days of the captivity increase, Elie began to question God's silence and even His existence amidst the suffering of His people.  

Explanation:

Elie Wiesel's memoir <em>Night </em>tells the first-hand experience of the Holocaust and its repercussions on the Jewish people during the German's discriminating acts against the race. The book became one of the most important books and evidence or source to study the events of the discrimination of the Jewish people during the Nazis' regime.

The <u>prisoners along with Elie managed to keep their tradition and religion through the small acts of praying before eating, and at times fasting and singing Hasidic melodies</u>. They also <u>observed the New Year celebration</u> and observed the <u>festival of Yom Kippur</u>, despite their already starving condition in the camps.

At first, Elie also had a strong belief in God. He kept his religious faith and practices as much as he can. But the longer he stayed in the camps, the more he saw of the suffering of "God's chosen people". This angered him and he<u> began to question whether there is really a God and if there is, why He would allow his people to suffer such misfortunes and sufferings</u>. Since his own captivity, his belief in God began to decrease and began to <u>question God's silence and existence at the face of His people's suffering</u>.

Choose the one with proper subject-verb agreement.
kenny6666 [7]

The sentence with proper subject-verb agreement is B. The student as well as the teacher want to go to the museum. In this sentence, the subject is what we call a compound subject, meaning that the verb refers and agrees with more than just one singular word. The compound subject is "student" and "teacher" and they are connected by "as well as", which functions as a coordinating conjunction would. That's why the verb should conjugate in its plural form.

Option A is incorrect because the structure inside parentheses is not related to the verb and does not influence its conjugation. Options C and D have a verb in the singular form for a compound subject - that would demand a plural conjugation.
