Prepositions describe the relationship between words in a sentence. They usually come before a noun or pronoun and show their relationship through a time, place, or direction. 

Examples of prepositions:
The dog lays beside the sofa. ⇒ <em>Beside</em> is a preposition of place.
After a few weeks, the flower began to bloom. ⇒ <em>After</em> is a preposition of time.
The woman slowly walked away from the mad dog. ⇒ <em>Away from</em> is a preposition of direction.

Brilliant_brown [7]

The introduction of the ghost adds mystery to the story, which naturally attracts the audience as it makes people want to find out more. Moreover, even though the ghost does not speak, his clothes reveal that he is King Hamlet. This suggests to the audience that the King has some kind of  unfinished business, or that there is something important that he wants to communicate. This forces the audience to wonder what the business might be and what this means to the future of the kingdom.

The people in Sighet refuse to believe that Hitler can or will exterminate the Jewish race; their lives continue as usual, despi
dusya [7]

Answer:

The Jews in Sighet refused to believe that Hitler can or will exterminate the Jewish race for they find it impossible for a whole race to be completely wiped off from the face of the earth. Also, they remained optimistic despite getting news about German's occupation of Jewish places for they thought that they are still far off from those places and that there will be some diplomatic solutions even if they are to come to Sighet.

Explanation:

Elie Wiesel's memoir "Night" recounts the horror that he, along with the other Jews, suffered during the German Nazi's regime, torturing the Jewish people. The Holocaust that was Hitler's attempts to fully annihilate the Jewish people was the main focus of the memoir.

The Jews of Sighet were at first adamant that none of the news about the torturing of Jews was alarming for it won't happen to them. He wrote

<em>"The Germans were already in our town, the Fascists were already in power, the verdict was already out—and the Jews of  Sighet were still smiling."</em>

They believed that either they are too far off from the main war front that German troops won't be able to reach. Or that Germany won't advance, believing that <em>"they will stay in Budapest.  For strategic reasons, for political reasons.."</em>

This was the belief of the Jews in Sighet. They also believed that a complete annihilation of the entire Jewish race is impossible, for they are not a small race. They realized that this was far from the truth when they found themselves surrounded by German troops within a short span of days.
