Even though I haven't read the story, based on textual clues in these sentences I would say the correct answer is <span>B. “The waiting man pulled out a handsome watch, the lids of it set with small diamonds.”
The reason why is that you can't really have a watch lined with diamonds unless you've worked really hard to get it. This man has hustled his whole life and in the end, he has done well for himself in life, which is evident by his expensive watch. </span><span>

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.
The answer are:
11.c. maintain control over her own life and leave Mango Street one day

13.d. the incident in the monkey garden and the assault at the carnival

14.a. a means of maintaining her freedom
> Lupe told her to keep writing because it will keep her free.
15.she must speak for those people she knows who cannot speak for themselves.
> she was out of the house on the mango street but she's worried and she wanted to go back for the rest and help them.

From the excerpt of Inferno “Just as he finished, the blackened landscape. Violently shuddered — with the fright of it. My memory once more bathes me in sweat.”
The line “violently shuddered—with the fright of it” could be categorized as an image and a sensory appeal.
This sensory language calls to one or more of the senses, making eloquent the writer’s characterization of what he contemplates with.
