<u>Answer</u>:

The meaning of the following passage changed if Wiesel used the word “pain” instead of “anguish” as C: “Anguish” carries more intense connotations, so using that word instead of “pain” raises the intensity of the passage.

<u>Explanation</u>:

'Anguish' means 'severe pain' or anxiety. It can also be used as a verb and is used when someone is felling extremely distressed about something.

Use of anguish refers to stronger pain one might feel. Whereas, 'pain' refers to a feeling of suffering caused by a damage. It lowers the intensity of the feeling of the person when used in a sentence as compared to use of 'anguish'. Use of anguish brings out deep emotions of the character. Thus, its use raises the intensity of the language used by the author.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Anguish also means a kind of pain, but it denotes extreme, almost unbearable pain. Anguish can also be used to refer to intense mental distress, but that does not necessarily imply confusion.

Using anguish instead of pain makes the suffering more intense and adds a more intense tone to the whole passage as well.
