Answer:

He is ashamed because his parents behave very selfishly with the arrival of Mr. Dussel.

Explanation:

"Diary of Anne Frank" is a play that seeks to reproduce the moments lived by Anne Frank's family while they were hiding to avoid being taken to the Nazi concentration camps. Anne Frank's family was Jewish and is hiding in a very small place together with the Van Daan family, who was also a Jewish family.

The two families live with little space and small amounts of food, however, Mr. Frank, decided to help yet another Jew to hide, Mr. Dussel. However, the Van Daan family did not like this idea and they behaved in a very bad manner when Mr. Dussel arrives in hiding. Mr and Mrs Van Daan are concerned about the amount of food now that they will have to feed one more person. This makes their son, Peter, very ashamed.

Peter is also embarrassed when everyone in hiding finds out that Mr Van Daan is stealing the food.

Why do you think Mrs. Schater kept screaming even though she was getting beaten for it?
nignag [31]

Answer:

Mrs. Schachter kept screaming "fire" even though she was getting beaten for it because she had foreseen what will happen to them, the Jews. She is like a warning for what will be the fate of the people and how most of them will end up.

Explanation:

The memoir <em>Night </em>by Elie Weisel tells the story of how the Jews were discriminated against and treated inhumanely by the German Nazis. The book became one of the most read and first-person accounts of the horrors of the Holocaust, one of the greatest genocide in world history.

Mrs. Schachter and the captured Jews were stuffed into the cattle cars and transported to other camps for their imprisonment. She was with her ten-year-old son. Along the way, she began screaming <em>"Fire! I see a fire! I see a fire! [. . . .] This terrible fire. Have mercy on me"</em>. This happened not just once or twice but more than thrice. She was badly beaten up for causing panic among them and was even gagged. But she kept on shouting about the fire.

Her 'vision' of the fire seems to be the<u> foreshadowing of the fate of the Jews</u>. Most of them will be put in the chamber and burned. She seems to foresee what will happen to them. And even though she was beaten up for shouting and claiming she saw a fire, she kept on repeating her claim to warn them of their fate, which, unfortunately wasn't understood by the people at that time.

You can't actually take random words and make them a sentence because a sentence is a complete thought.You have to think about your sentence or else it won't make sense.
